Due Diligence begins with our commitment to detail and is backed by our extensive deal experience and transactional expertise. Our unique commitment to the private equity industry means that we can identify risks associated with target industries and companies in terms that private equity professionals can understand-and use to their advantage.
We also share your creative drive and entrepreneurial spirit, giving us the sense of urgency that comes from understanding your goals and strategic vision.
Equity Risk Partners has performed in excess of 500 due diligence assignments over the past 10 years. There is no insurance broker/agent with more due diligence experience than Equity Risk Partners. Our due diligence process is highlighted by the following:
For over 10 years and in excess of 500 deals, Equity Risk Partners professionals have done one thing - perform insurance due diligence for private equity firms. We understand your time constraints. We can operate with imperfect information. We appreciate the difference between a "nice to know" and a "need to know" in the middle of a transaction.
Our job is to protect the best interests of our private equity firm client. Our job is not to sell insurance to your target company. If the target company's insurance program is reasonable, we tell you so. That is what you are paying us for. Our clients will never question the objectivity of our analysis.
We do not have rainmakers. We do not have a deal "swat" team. We most certainly do not have a local office to where we can ship portfolio companies. We have one, consistent team from diligence through divestiture. Your relationship manager is the deal team leader. The deal team leader is the portfolio company service executive. The portfolio company service executive is the insurance company liaison. Same person. Consistency.
Due Diligence is not just about reviewing insurance policies. We review your Stock Purchase Agreement for any risk management, indemnification, liability assumption, or insurance requirements/issues. We review your credit agreements to ensure the target's ability to comply with the requirements. We review leases. We review supplier contracts. Reviewing the insurance policies is the easy part of our job.
