Certa Insurance Partners

Profile

Certa Insurance Partners is an independent specialist underwriting agency and Lloyd's Coverholder providing bespoke tax insurance solutions around the globe. We’re a market-leading team of 18 tax and insurance professionals, uniquely placed as the only underwriting agency focused exclusively on tax and contingent risk insurance.

We deliver tailored tax insurance policies to cover identified low risk tax concerns which are used to facilitate our clients’ commercial transactions. Certa offers solutions to bespoke tax issues in a wide range of situations: whether removing potential tax exposures discovered during M&A due diligence, affording the necessary comfort to a liquidator on winding-up, providing comfort to CFOs and banks on a group reorganisation or restructuring or just providing peace of mind. The policy can cover not just the tax itself, but also the costs of defending a claim from a tax authority and the risk of interest and penalties arising. Please note that the product is designed to cover low risk issues arising in genuine commercial transactions. We will not insure abusive tax avoidance schemes.

Certa is a managing general agency and writes insurance on behalf of 15 Lloyd’s insurers. We can cover individual risks of up to £157m / €200m / $207m, with policy periods of up to 10 years to match the statute of limitations on the tax issue concerned.
