Shareholder Litigation Funding
What is Shareholder Litigation?
Shareholder litigation is a complex legal proceeding, whereby shareholders seek compensation for losses they have suffered as a result of managerial or company misconduct.
Managerial or company negligence that would lead to the pursuit of shareholder litigation include:
Breach of statutory duty
Violation of company articles
Breaking of company by-laws
Typically, shareholder litigation has been viewed more as a symbolic threat against misconduct. However, in recent years, it is a form of legal dispute that has risen in prevalence across Europe and is expected to continue growing. This is in large part due to ‘shareholder activism’ – a shift in the past several decades whereby shareholders have sought more involvement within their companies.
Shareholder Litigation Funding and Financing
As shareholder litigation claims continue to grow in numbers, so does the economic significance of such claims. Therefore, shareholder litigation finance is an increasingly popular area for third-party funders to invest in.
With many more shareholder litigation disputes reaching court, expect more funders to have an interest within this area of third-party financing.
