This type of transaction has been permitted in SA law since 2004 and has recently been gaining traction in the market.Taurus Capital recently closed with a fundraise of R145.8m to fund cases, which it says is available for “high-value commercial litigation matters” in SA.

Topics of discussion include: an explanation of the litigation funding business model; challenges faced by people in funding cases; demand by investors and consumers for such a service; how much it takes to push a large case through the court system; and the risk involved in the business model.
