In April 2016 we completed a £5.8m investment in Connection Therium Limited, a "Jersey Expert Fund" providing litigation funding. Litigation funding is where a third party provides the financial resources to assist a claimant with expensive litigation or arbitration cases in return for an agreed share of the proceeds of any successful claim.
The fund will be advised by Therium Capital Management, a leading commercial litigation funder who now advises over £8million of our clients’ capital following an initial investment in 2013.
Therium deploys litigation funding across a range of industry sectors, from financial services to technology and energy, in areas such as intellectual property, anti-trust/competition claims and international arbitration.
