Insurance

The Insurance working group advises and represents (re-)insurance companies on all aspects of regulatory, legal and tax matters.

We advise and represent (re-)insurance companies in complex domestic and international corporate, capital markets and insurance law matters. Our core competence includes the comprehensive advice of (re-)insurance companies on M&A and capital markets transactions (in particular public tender offers, M&A, hybrid and convertible bond issues, equity and equity-linked capital transactions) as well as on license and regulatory requirements (in particular on corporate governance, remuneration policy, compliance, solvency capital and re-domiciliation to Switzerland). Our competence in conducting proceedings before regulatory authorities and courts regarding every aspect of insurance regulation is equally recognized as is our broad experience in arbitration, litigation and related proceedings in the (re-)insurance sector. We have established a considerable reputation in organizing and performing internal investigations concerning compliance and regulatory activities. We are recognized advisors in the field of (re-)insurance and broker contracts. We advise clients on the structuring, issuance, marketing and distribution of innovative insurance products from a legal, regulatory and tax perspective. Our firm is continuously recommended for its expertise in the (re-)insurance area by leading law directories.
