Description
Innsworth Advisors provides advisory and management services to a litigation funder. Our services cover the sourcing, evaluation and management of investments in high value litigation and arbitration. The investments managed by Innsworth Advisors include the funding of high value claims, including class/collective redress actions and shareholder group claims. Funded claims include shareholder claims against Volkswagen (arising out of 'Dieselgate') and Ericsson (arising out of alleged payments to ISIS) and consumer claims against Mastercard (interchange fee litigation), Meta Platforms (alleged anticompetitive obtaining and use of users' data) and Oracle and Salesforce (alleged unlawful deployment of third party tracking cookies). Approach
The claims funded under the management of Innsworth Advisors seek compensation / financial redress for wrongdoing, often in circumstances where this follows on from or supplements regulatory action to hold companies accountable. This includes, for example, where shareholders are misled and suffer loss (e.g. through governance failures or 'greenwashing') or where customers are directly impacted by a company's unlawful conduct. Through such cases, litigation funding can serve as a tool to improve corporate behaviour by imposing a financial cost to wrongdoing.
