Learn about our services
-
Our risk and insurance due diligence services for ETA clients focus on identifying risk and protecting enterprise value. We help clients identify uninsured litigation, insurance coverage issues, successors’ liability, contingent liabilities, and governance risks that could impact post-closing performance.
-
Our firm helps clients successfully navigate SBA 7(a) and 504 loan requirements and underwriting challenges for business acquisitions and commercial real estate deals. We work with a network of nationwide SBA lenders to secure the best loan terms and conditions.
-
For ETA clients, we provide insurance solutions to address the different types of transactional liabilities which could negatively impact the value of the business after acquisition.
A simple example of how transaction liability shows up: An ETA client buys an electrician’s business and, one year after the transfer of ownership, the business receives a professional liability claim related to the licensed services of the prior owner.
Wayne Risk Finance solves for this by identifying these risks during the due diligence phase and providing insurance solutions to protect the new owners and the business value.
