Are ESG initiatives and regulations creating more tension between companies and their suppliers? Are we seeing an uptick in disputes that are arising out of ESG initiative and regulations? What impacts and pressures are ESG matters having on companies, funders, attorneys and governments? These topics and more were covered on IMN’s panel discussion “ESG Initiatives: Challenges and Opportunities.”
The widespread adoption of insurance products within the litigation finance space has been one of the hot topics recently, as it opens the door to a range of opportunities for funders and LPs. IMN’s panel discussion on insurance explored how funders can use these products to lower their rates and hedge investments, the solutions available to de-risk and monetize litigation and arbitration, what is covered and how much coverage is needed, and more.
How are inflation and rising rates impacting the litigation funding market? How can funders attract more institutional capital in today’s economic environment? What new products are emerging to disrupt the market? IMN’s 5th Annual Financing, Structuring, and Investing in Litigation Finance event kicked off with an opening panel on “The State of the Market: Where is the Litigation Finance Market Headed?”
