Tax Liability Insurance

Tax liability insurance can be used to transfer identified tax and VAT risks to the insurance market. Tax risks can e.g. be discovered in due diligence workstreams in transactions, but also in ongoing operations in companies, balance sheets, in restructurings and in various fund structures.

Even companies that seek the help of tax experts and advisors may have to make decisions in areas where assessments and applications of tax rules are not fully clear, which could lead to financial uncertainty should a risk materialise. Identified tax risks can also be a deal-breaker in an M&A process if the seller and buyer disagree on e.g. the quantum of the risk.

A tax liability insurance can, among other things, ring-fence the identified tax matter and lift it off the negotiation table, and provide financial protection for loss resulting from tax authorities' successful challenge of a company's tax handling and/or tax structure for specific risks.
