The present issue as usual covers ‘Featured Deals’, capturing the recent M&A deals in Hyderabad. Also, the detailed article in this issue of the newsletter deliberates on the W&I Insurance: Rise of synthetic W&Is.
The article discusses the Warranty and Indemnity (W&I) insurance, which protects buyers or sellers from financial losses due to warranty breaches in M&A deals. It analyses synthetic W&I insurance, a newer option for distressed deals, where warranties are negotiated between the policyholder and insurer, unlike a traditional W&I policy which relies on warranties negotiated between the buyer and the seller. The authors in this regard also discuss various limitations of this new type of insurance and certain aspects which are required to be considered.
