Risk Partners on Going Public and the capital market blog on prospectus liability
insurance

Over the past few months, we have expanded our expertise in the Prospectus liability insurance with a broad audience on two renowned platforms. Here is an overview:

  • Kapitalmarkt.blog
    In the article "POSI insurance - the protective vest on the capital market", we explain why prospectus liability insurance is an indispensable tool for companies that are active on the capital market. The article shows in a practical way how such insurance not only minimizes liability risks, but also strengthens investor confidence.

  • GoingPublic Magazine
    In "Liability risks in uplisting and private placements", we focus on the particular risks that arise in private placements and the switch to regulated market segments. Here, too, we emphasize how well thought-out prospectus liability insurance can create the necessary security for issuers.

From our projects and the special features of POSI and D&O insurance as claims-made insurances, we know how important it is to have such an insurance program ideally in place. 24 months in advance structure. It is therefore important for us to share our knowledge and expertise so that companies are optimally prepared for the challenges.

🔍 How can we help you? Whether you are planning an IPO, preparing a private placement or want to protect your company against potential liability risks: We provide you with comprehensive advice on Prospectus liability insurance and develop the optimum solution for your requirements.

The Governor of Nevada approved the bill on June 3, 2023, so the law came into force on October 1, 2023. We had classified this legislation (in the USA, insurance supervision is organized at state level) as too watchful for our clients, but this law
