Patrick Crisp from our Sydney office has moderated Episode 11 of the Association of Litigation Funders of Australia (AALF) Webinar Series. This episode, titled The Global Market for ATE Insurance in 2024, brings together industry leaders to discuss the evolving trends and challenges in After-the-Event (ATE) insurance.
Robert Rothkopf provided a funder’s view on group and class action proceedings in the UK for the Houthoff Class Action Survey 2024. The survey offers perspectives on class action trends in 12 jurisdictions.
Robert’s predictions for the future of class actions in the UK included the expansion of claim types that will be permitted under the opt-out jurisdiction, and confirmation of the court’s jurisdiction to order defendants to pay litigation funding costs on top of damages where defendant wrongdoing and/or litigation conduct is egregious, instead of claimant’s meeting funding costs from compensation.
Thanks to Houthoff for their initiative in leading this important research.
