NEW YORK – Liberty International Underwriters (LIU), part of Liberty Mutual Insurance, announced today that it has teamed with Huntersure LLC, a program administrator, to provide Transactional Liability insurance. This program will offer coverages in Representations and Warranties, Tax Liability (including Tax Opinion and Tax Credit) and Contingent Liability.
Underwritten by Huntersure and backed by the financial strength and stability of Liberty Mutual, this coverage is tailored to protect and bridge critical gaps in contracts between buyers and sellers in the M&A market ―valued last year at a record-breaking $4.7 trillion with more than 40,000 transactions announced―as well as help eliminate the need for escrow and make it easier for deals to get approved.
“Huntersure is positioning itself to be a leader in the transactional liability market. Their experience with large law and accounting firms gives them unique insight into financial and due diligence exposures and makes them an excellent partner for us in this space,” said LIU Executive Vice President of U.S. Specialty Casualty, Carl Pursiano.
LIU’s Transactional Liability product will provide up to $25 million in limits, giving brokers and agents a strong, financially stable option to help their clients get the insurance coverage they need.
“Liberty’s financial strength and solid ratings combined with the company’s focus on developing and supporting long-term relationships with MGAs make them an ideal insurance carrier for this continually expanding yet underserved market,” said Huntersure Chairman Dennis Mullins.
