Place: Sorainen office (44A Gedimino av., Vilnius)
Time: 09:00, March 18, 2026
Working language: English

Today’s business environment is becoming increasingly complex both in terms of M&A transactions and in day-to-day operations. Uncertainty surrounding transactions and evolving tax scrutiny mean that risks relating to deals and ongoing operations can significantly affect company value.

Warranty and indemnity (W&I) insurance and Tax Liability insurance are therefore becoming important strategic tools that help companies manage transaction risks and tax exposures arising from operational decisions, ultimately protecting enterprise value.

This business breakfast will bring together legal, insurance, and tax specialists – Michał Fąderski, Christoph Kubicki, Mantas Petkevičius, Indrė Ščeponienė and Indrė Pelėdaitė – to examine how these solutions can be integrated into modern deals and business structures. Through practical insights, real claim examples, and discussion of current market trends, attendees will gain a deeper understanding of how risk transfer can facilitate smoother negotiations, safeguard commercial outcomes and mitigate tax liabilities arising from transactions and ongoing business operations.

Key learnings include:

  • How W&I and Tax Liability insurance can be used to strengthen deal structures and manage tax risks arising from business operations
  • Effective methods for mitigating post-closing risks and managing tax exposures
  • Using insurance as a strategic risk transfer tool
  • Insights from claims examples

This event is aimed at CEOs, CFOs, company founders, leaders of private equity and corporate development, and insurance brokers.

Participation is free of charge, but registration is required.
