M&A and Private Equity Insurance Due Diligence

Insurance diligence that protects purchase price, avoids post-close surprises, and stabilizes renewal and integration

WHY INSURANCE IS A DEAL ISSUE, NOT A BACK-OFFICE TASK

Insurance decisions directly impact EBITDA, RWI outcomes, lender confidence, & speed to close. Most targets are underinsured, misinsured, or have never been benchmarked against institutional standards.

WHAT WE DO

We run a structured insurance and benefits diligence workstream during LOI and exclusivity. We quantify the financial impact of coverage gaps, claims volatility, contract-driven requirements, collateral, and one-time deal costs. We translate findings into closing action items and a post-close implementation plan.

Who We Serve

  • General partners and financial sponsors
  • Family office
  • Strategic buyers
  • Portfolio companies with private equity ownership
  • Private and family owned business looking to sell in the next 1-3 years
