About

  • LitFinX is an AI driven, data analytics, litigation finance platform. It seeks to connect law firms and litigation case workload, directly with institutional investors. The platform will be a world first in operating exclusively on the blockchain.
  • LitFinX will deploy smart digital assets into next generation legal technology enabling the platform to connect end to end, thereby linking seamlessly all litigation finance market investors, users, funders and law firms.
  • LitFinX’s platform will ensure more of the value chain will be compressed into one infrastructure with the aim of vastly improving the efficiency of the litigation finance marketplace.
  • At the heart of the platform transactions will focus on a primary market that offers syndicated funding and a secondary market to trade the risk as a digital asset, thereby introducing much needed liquidity and risk transfer capabilities.

Mission

  • The mission is to turn litigation finance into a transparent asset class by solving the market’s current inefficiencies which are by no means restricted to just risk-management and capital-access challenges.
  • LitFinX will sit at the intersection of a burgeoning marketplace for litigation finance and will encompass proven and trusted technology.
  • By leveraging distributed ledger technology and data analytics LitFinX will bring new levels of price transparency, insightful data, and transaction efficiency to a fast-growing but previously opaque and esoteric asset class thereby removing the many problems that currently beleaguer the litigation finance environment.
  • LitFinX will sit at the intersection of a growing marketplace for litigation finance and utilises trusted technology creating significant first mover advantages for its clients.

Digitalisation

  • LitFinX is a unique business developing the world’s first fully integrated digital platform dedicated to the litigation funding market.
  • The platform is based on distributed ledger technology to provide a secure eco-system for funding, trading, and settling transactions for litigation finance.
  • The integrity of case records is essential for an effective market since these records are the exclusive source of information on a case for investors and therefore also serve as sales documents. Distributed ledger technology is the prevailing paradigm to enable immutability of shared records.
  • A comprehensive historic view on how case data has evolved is necessary to detect any anomalies in case handling retrospectively. Digital ledger technology provides strong guarantees on the immutability of records.
  • The primary and secondary market of stake in legal cases constitutes a financial market in which parties require transactional trade semantics. Digital ledger technology provides the necessary deterministic and transactional environment.
  • Alternative trading pools will allow investors to examine a market without revealing their intentions. Confidential digital ledger technology and controlled access protocols support anonymity for participants harnessing the platform and its technology.
  • Many to many interactions mean that LitFinX can run on a decentralised but immutably recorded infrastructure, which is only available through DLT technology.
  • Privacy preserving distributed ledger technology will provide:
    • Clear separation of interests between law firms, platform operators and investors through decentralised architecture.
    • Tamper-proof record keeping of all current and historic case information and trade information.
    • Automation through fully digital means of communication, free from media discontinuity.
    • Secure messaging channels between participants.
    • Smart Contract logic to enforce validity of data.
