Overview

Allen & Calabro is seeking $25 million to acquire interests in meritorious, commercial litigation claims

  • Litigation finance assets provide diversification and are non-correlated to traditional investments

  • For nearly a decade, the Allen & Calabro principals have worked collaboratively as a team in commercial litigation against economically superior opponents

Opportunity

The litigation finance industry is still nascent, and most commercial litigation funders seek cases with greater than $20 million in hard, estimated damages

 

  • Most American commercial litigation funders focus on larger cases, ignoring smaller target cases, thereby creating significant opportunities

  • Estimated market penetration by number of cases filed is < 1%

  • Industry literature reports that “Demand for litigation financing continues to grow with no sign of slowing down”

Solution

  • Pursue overlooked, smaller, meritorious cases with less than $20 million in estimated damages

  • Expect to fund multiple cases and work with multiple plaintiffs’ lawyers, general counsels and chief financial officers

Specific Risks

  • The risk of timely origination of quality litigation finance assets​

  • Resolution risk – no collection from a particular asset – may be caused by the underlying litigation resolving unfavorably to the Fund’s position, and/or the client refusing to forward payment to the Fund​

  • Changes in the legal/regulatory landscape could adversely affect performance​

 

  • Private securities are speculative, illiquid, and carry a high degree of risk – including the loss of the entire investment
