Burford Capital Limited (“Burford Capital” or “Burford” or “the Company”), the leading global finance and asset management firm focused on law, today announced that it has successfully listed on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), becoming the first ever legal finance firm to be publicly traded in the US and the first dual listed company in the legal finance industry.
Burford’s listing not only marks a milestone in its own history, it also brings increased visibility and accountability to the global commercial legal finance market. Legal finance is increasingly relevant given economic pressures that make businesses eager to contain costs, conserve cash and maximize profitability, and as commercial disputes typically rise following a downturn, the need for finance will increase.
This communication shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any ordinary shares or other securities of Burford.
