🚨In a landmark decision, the English High Court has set a new precedent by awarding a security for costs order in a restructuring plan challenge. This critical ruling could reshape how restructuring plans are contested and funded in the future. 🔍 What’s the Big Deal? The court has mandated that potential challengers to restructuring plans may now require security for costs—ensuring they can recover expenses if the plan is unsuccessful. This decision highlights the need for companies to secure funds or consider insurance options to mitigate financial risks and support restructuring efforts. 📉 Impact on the Industry? Will dissenting creditors increasingly seek such security, potentially altering the landscape of corporate restructuring? 📚 Read more about the ruling and practical advice on leveraging insurance and financial strategies to manage these risks here: https://lnkd.in/ds-GWdGC #LegalNews #Securityforcosts #Restructuring #CourtRuling #FinancialRisk #LegalInsight #ATEinsurance #litigationinsurance

Collective redress within Europe is an attractive area for litigation finance given the anticipated increase in cases following member state’s implementation of the Representative Action Directive. The TL4 conference in Amsterdam higlighted both the level of complexity and opportunity that exists for claimants, firms and funders operating in class actions across Europe. Great conference! Thank you ThoughtLeaders4 Disputes | TL4D.

We're excited to be at the ThoughtLeaders4 Disputes | TL4D European Class Action Conference in Amsterdam today and tomorrow. TheJudge Global's Matthew Amey will be speaking on a panel this afternoon.

 As the government shifts its focus to the upcoming election (parliament will dissolve Thursday) neither house nor their committees will meet until we have a result. This is bad news for the LFA Bill to reverse PACCAR which had been making good progress in the House of Lords. Speaking to the Global Competition Review, Erso’s Sarah Breckenridge comments on the likelihood of The Bill being temporarily scrapped and what it means for the industry, and more importantly claimants.
