About Litigation Finance:

Litigation finance is an emerging asset class that provides third-party capital to law firms and parties involved in legal disputes. It encompasses a range of financing options, from funding single cases to large-scale law firm loans. Litigation finance investments span various areas of law, including mass torts, intellectual property, bankruptcies, and international arbitrations. This asset class is attractive to investors due to its potential for uncorrelated returns and the inefficiencies present in the legal finance market.
