Why Boards Need a Broker Who Does More Than Just Place Insurance
Manage episode 513370276 series 3666233
In this episode of The SPAC Podcast, Machua “Motsch” Millett, Chief Innovation Officer at Lockton Companies, outlines the critical role brokers play in guiding boards through the D&O insurance process before, during, and after a SPAC transaction.
Machua shares how his team approaches the role as a true risk advisor, not just an insurance placement firm. From educating boards on lifecycle risks, to designing cost-efficient coverage programs, to stepping in with claims advocacy during litigation or regulatory actions, he explains why working with a broker who deeply understands SPAC dynamics and can partner with outside counsel is essential to protecting directors, officers, and sponsors from personal liability.
