HUNTERSRisk and insurance counsel
Led by your lawyers and planners
Succession, estate and continuity of the company. We make sure the risk and insurance side of the plan holds up: the operating company, the homes, and the people who sit on its board.
Led by your investment advisers
We do not manage investments. We build a risk register, appraise the physical assets, and report in a form your advisers can read, so everyone sees the same picture.
Led by you and your advisers
Foundations and non-profit boards carry real personal risk. Directors & Officers Liability is the expertise this firm was founded on.
Led by the family and its advisers
Family members who sit on boards take on personal liability. We advise on Directors & Officers cover for the people who serve.
Led by your lawyers and trust advisers
Companies, trusts and the property they hold. We insure the homes, and design tailored risk structures, including insurance-linked securities with Spence Strategic and captives with Dion Strategic.
Led by your tax advisers
Relocation and cross-border structures stay with your tax advisers. When a family or its property moves abroad, we bring UNIBA Partner offices in 140 countries, and Centuro Global’s legal, accounting and tax resources.
