AgendaWednesday, 10 June 2026 - ET (Eastern Time, GMT-05:00)

This session will examine the current fundraising environment for litigation managers, including shifts in market conditions, LP expectations, pricing of capital, and fund structures. Special emphasis will be placed on growing interest from private equity firms and what this institutional interest signals for the industry’s future growth trajectory.  

• How are litigation finance funds differentiating themselves to attract capital in an increasingly competitive fundraising environment?  
• How might the influx of PE capital change pricing dynamics and deal structures in the market?  
• What’s driving private equity firms to enter the litigation finance space now, and how does their approach differ from traditional funders?  
• How has the capital raising environment for litigation funds evolved over the past 24 months?   

We’ll explore case studies of innovative approaches that extract value from aging or underperforming litigation assets in investor portfolios. The discussion will cover strategies for repacking cases, restructuring deals, identifying secondary market opportunities, and using creative financing structures to maximize returns on legacy investments.

• How should funders re-evaluate and re-underwrite cases that haven’t progressed as anticipated?  
• What characteristics typically define an ‘aging asset’ or underperforming litigation investments in a portfolio?  
• What strategies exist for restructuring funding arrangements with law firms or claimants on stalled cases?  
• Is there a viable secondary market for litigation finance assets, and if so, what valuations are achievable?  
• What lessons from distressed debt and special situations investing apply to managing litigation finance portfolios?  
• What role can additional capital deployment play in reviving or accelerating resolution of aged assets?  
• How can funders or portfolio companies use partial settlements or carve-out to realize value on complex cases?
