M&A Market Trends: Leveraging Corporate Risk Transfer Solutions to Increase Sale Prospects
Increasingly, public and private companies are exiting contingent and legacy liabilities through sale transactions to corporate providers. Early adopters explored these transactions to increase stock price or unlock cash flows — use cases that remain relevant today. But as the market for these transactions continues to emerge, companies and bankers have leveraged them as one part of larger, broader M&A deals — to increase the sale prospects of other assets.
Join us for a discussion about these market trends with Robert Hut and Milan Ceppi of Financial Asset Recovery Analytics (FARA Recovery), a leading corporate provider familiar with corporate risk transfer solutions, and Drew Groth of Milliman, an actuary experienced in modeling the liabilities that are the subject of the transactions. We will cover a range of topics, including the nature of the sale transactions, the contingent and legacy liabilities on which they have focused and are expected to focus in the future, strategies in modeling liabilities for purposes of a sale transaction, and the mechanics of the transaction itself, including diligence and structure considerations.
