Aon is in the business of better decisions
At Aon, we shape decisions for the better to protect and enrich the lives of people around the world. As an organization, we are united through trust as one inclusive team and we are passionate about helping our colleagues and clients succeed.
What is Transaction Solutions at Aon?
Businesses and communities face a constantly evolving range of interconnected risks, and transactional insurance helps solve those problems. Transactional Insurance is composed of Aon’s Tax Insurance and R&W Insurance team, which helps corporate and private equity clients allocate and mitigate specific transactional risks so deals can close with greater certainty and capital can be deployed more efficiently.
More specifically, Tax Insurance covers identified tax risks (e.g., the tax treatment of a transaction or structure) to provide balance sheet protection and deal certainty to taxpayers. It is commonly used in M&A transactions, tax credit investments, and corporate planning.
Similarly, R&W insurance covers financial losses arising from breaches of representations and warranties in M&A transactions. This helps buyers and sellers bridge negotiation gaps, reduce or replace escrow, and streamline post-closing recourse.
Our team is primarily staffed by former practicing tax lawyers and transactional professionals who translate complex tax and legal issues into tailored insurance solutions for our clients.
