Specialized M&A and PE insurance can cover you against many forms of risk inherent in mergers and acquisitions

Before closing, our transactional risk products that facilitate M&A – such as representations, and warranty and tax indemnity coverage – allow parties to efficiently allocate the risk. After closing the transaction, existing casualty liabilities can be managed through loss portfolio transfers and close-outs, and a variety of liability products and directors and officers insurance.

Chubb also offers a range of ongoing insurance products, detailed below.
