Our global team of insurance lawyers advise many of the world’s most well-known industry participants on their most significant corporate, regulatory and transactional matters, as well as on complex claims, class actions, disputes and investigations.

Our team members collaborate frequently with other practice groups in major financial centers across the globe to provide our clients with a deep industry perspective. Clients call on us to help them navigate a range of business opportunities and challenges, including hard and soft markets, new regulatory frameworks, insurance technologies (InsurTech) and cross-border and international issues. 

Our depth of understanding comes from working with industry participants including agencies and brokerages, captives, private equity funds, property and casualty insurers, professional malpractice insurers, reinsurers, surplus lines companies and self-funded alternative risk organizations. 

Operating from each of the world's key insurance markets and with lawyers drawn from across our practice, our clients benefit from our cutting-edge legal experience and extensive industry knowledge to provide tailored solutions to their most challenging and high-profile assignments. 

Hong Kong serves as the regional headquarters for many global insurance groups and multinational brokerage firms, and is a key market in its own right. 

Our team is well versed in advising insurance companies on both corporate finance transactions and M&A transactions, and on the ever-evolving insurance regulatory regimes throughout Asia Pacific.

While traditional insurers still dominate the market, InsurTech has rapidly developed in Hong Kong due to the Insurance Authority introducing the Fast Track Scheme for digital-only insurance providers and the InsurTech sandbox. This has fueled growth in Hong Kong's InsurTech market. 

In addition, warranty and indemnity (W&I) insurance has developed rapidly in Asia over the last decade, and an increasing number of insurers are competing to offer W&I coverage. Our Hong Kong team has advised most of these insurers across dozens of deals involving most jurisdictions in the region, and is a market leader in this growing field.
