In this introductory episode, we delve into the nitty gritty of Warranty & Indemnity Insurance with George Apperly, Vice President at Lockton. What exactly is it and why is it important? How early should you think about sorting it out? What do the costs look like? We answer all this and more, on Jamieson’s new podcast, “The Coalface of Private Equity”.

In this episode, we get into the practical reality of compensation in private capital-backed businesses with Tony Gilbert, Head of Compensation Advice at Jamieson.

When should management teams benchmark salary and bonus? How do incentives change when the buyer is a Strategic rather than another PE fund? What’s different about take-privates, where hundreds of employees may be used to equity schemes? And as hold periods stretch with infrastructure and long-duration capital, what replaces the classic “in-and-out” PE equity story — cash LTIPs, phantom plans, retention bonuses, or something else? We cover it all on “The Coalface of Private Equity”.
