WHAT IS A W&I INSURANCE
3
Warranties & indemnities insurance or reps & warranties insurance (W&I insurance) can
be structured as a seller- or buyer-side policy which covers losses arising from a breach of
warranty or claims under an indemnity. W&I insurance covers risks that are unknown at
inception of the policy.
A buyer-side W&I insurance covers all loss suffered by the buyer arising from a breach
of sellers’ warranty or, in certain cases, under an indemnity (first party loss insurance).
A seller-side W&I insurance grants cover for sums that the seller is obligated to pay as
a result of a warranty or indemnity claim made by the buyer under the SPA, due to a
breach of warranty or to a third party claim (third party liability insurance).
The W&I insurance includes coverage for reasonable costs related to the prevention,
mitigation, investigation, defence or settlement of any covered claim.

KEY ADVANTAGES
4
Seller seeks: Buyer seeks:
• Clean exit
Liability coverage for warranty/indemnity claims
and loss payments
• First-party coverage
Direct claim against the insurer for loss suffered
resulting from a breach of warranty or indemnity
• Full proceeds available
Sale proceeds may immediately be distributed to
sellers, mainly PE
• An excellent debtor
W&I insurers generally have a good rating,
“A” or higher
• An alternative securitization
Replacing or reducing the need for an escrow,
bank guarantee, deferred price or loan notes with
subsequent costs reduction
• No insolvency risks
In particular, when the seller is a PE fund to be
dissolved after the sale or is a distressed company
• A more attractive target
“Dress up your bride”
• A more attractive bid
“Sugar your bid”
Seller and Buyer seek (alignment of interest):
• to speed up closing of the deal
• to break up potential deadlocks (bridging gaps in negotiations)
• not to burden their commercial relationship with possible warranty claims

W&I INSURANCE IN CEE/CIS – RECENT DEALS
8
Project Belgrade: Buyer-side W&I Insurance for a group of companies
active in south-eastern Europe in the non-alcoholic beverage and dairy
industry, sold by the liquidators of the Holding companies (Dutch entities).
Key challenges of this deal were the wide array of contingent issues that
had to be identified and dealt with in a separate way (known issues are
not covered by W&I insurance) as well as the complex corporate
structure of the group that extended to different south-eastern European
jurisdictions. Further, pending antitrust issues.
Project Office Building: Property deal for an office building in Budapest.
Buyer-side, with the client being a global real estate private equity.
Problems with lack of DD on chain of ownership, and interpretation of new
Hungarian Civil Code in that respect. In the end we bound the policy for
Project Office Building, with a reduced limit of liability (EUR9m) and no
coverage for the warranties relating to title. First Title, a specialist title
insurer, offered the title insurance policy for the full purchase price. All
parties were happy with the final outcome.

Project Lei: Buyer-side W&I insurance for a Hungarian investor in the
energy sector that acquired a majority of shares of a limited liability
company in Romania, which owns and operates run-off-the-river micro-
hydro power plants in Romania. The sellers were two private companies
of which neither was willing to provide a seller cap of significance. Some
of the major issues in our risk assessment included the fact that the
target company had only non-audited financial accounts (as no audit was
required by the applicable Romanian financial legislation for this type of
legal entity), some specifications around the target properties were
unclear and on-going, identified litigation had to be excluded from
coverage.
Project Ruby: Seller-side W&I insurance for a real estate fund for a
business park in Łódź (property) that has been acquired by the seller
from another investment fund in 1999. There were several issues
related to the environmental exposure as well as to a broad array of
missing documents, governmental approvals and permits. Remote risk
of reclaim as well as structural damage due to former mining activities.

As is the case in certain niche M&A markets, such as the
Nordics and Australasia, it is expected that M&A
insurance will continue to grow in Europe, the Americas
and further afield.
Within Europe, M&A insurance is most commonly used
in Germany, UK and the Nordic regions, though an uptick
is being seen in France, Italy, Spain and Eastern Europe
US companies’ growing interest in M&A insurance also
mirrors their growing crossborder activity. Conversely,
there is a growing number of institutional investors in
Europe now looking to sell companies
