Our insurance M&A team is consistently recognized for our position and experience with middle market M&A in both the US and UK. Many of our transactions are cross-border in nature and our industry lawyers regularly collaborate across our global platform to handle country-specific issues.

Clients engage with our team to handle matters from simple acquisitions of shell insurers to complex, multi-layered acquisitions requiring extensive pre-sale transactions, restructurings and demutualizations. These often include private M&A, joint venture and corporate structuring transactions, insurance company formations and redomestications, InsurTech transactions and alternative insurance distribution arrangements, share acquisitions and dispositions, debt and equity capital markets, renewal rights transactions, governance, general commercial and corporate advisory matters.

We also have significant experience with insurance agency and brokerage acquisitions. Our regular involvement in competitive auctions and our experience in acting on both sell-side and buy-side deals gives us a well-rounded commercial perspective. We also work closely with our colleagues in tax, information governance and data privacy, employment and labor, employee benefits and executive compensation to deliver additional strategic insight where relevant.
