In Aon’s 2025 Global Transaction Solutions Claims Study, we shifted the focus of our data analysis to highlight how Aon’s historical claims data can assist clients, advisors, and insurers on their next deal.
Key Takeaways
-
Through Q4 2024, North American clients have now recovered over $1.4 billion on R&W claims, with over $300 million being paid in 2024.

An in-depth look at claim frequency and severity across industries indicates that no one industry has proved to be particularly “high risk” for R&W breaches.
In this year’s claims study, we shifted the focus of our data analysis to highlight how Aon’s historical claims data can assist clients, advisors, and insurers on their next deal. In the webinars below, our regional teams in North America, EMEA and APAC discuss how this leverages our vast experience and continuous years of data tracking to help our clients better predict future risks and secure deal value.
The Aon claims team boasts extensive experience in litigation and insurance claims, spanning several decades. This expertise offers a distinct advantage, enabling the team to deliver tailored solutions by leveraging both real-time data and insights from historical claims. This approach enhances our ability to advise clients effectively on their M&A insurance policies and due diligence strategies.
After years of claims and payments, we can conclude that whether large or small, valid claims are being paid, insurers are accepting multiplied damages where appropriate, and the policies are effectively allowing our clients to mitigate their deal risk exposure.
We trust you will find our analysis informative and thought-provoking. Your questions, feedback, and challenges for potential new angles of analysis in the future are always welcome.
