Juridica’s investment aim is to provide its shareholders with a level of dividends and capital growth that exceed investors’ cost of capital by an attractive margin. It pursues this objective by investing directly and indirectly in a wide variety of business-to–business related litigation and arbitration claims. These investments are predominantly in the US, the UK and in international arbitration cases and are identified by our Investment Manager, Juridica Capital Management Limited (Juridica Capital Management), from direct and indirect marketing to major corporations and an established network of leading lawyers and world-class law firms.

Juridica seeks to meet its investment and yield objectives through investing in a diversified portfolio of corporate claim assets. The Company focuses exclusively on business-to-business related claim investments where the amount in dispute exceeds US$ 25,000,000. It does not invest in personal injury, product liability, mass tort, or class action claims. Investment size typically ranges from US$ 2,000,000 to US$ 10,000,000, although larger investments in exceptional opportunities or a portfolio of opportunities are made. Except where specifically approved by the Board of Directors, no single investment will exceed US$ 10,000,000.

Juridica, through Juridica Capital Management, examines a large number of investment opportunities for every investment that is actually funded. Since inception Juridica Capital Management has examined hundreds of opportunities to invest in claims and thousands of potential patent investment opportunities.

Juridica Capital Management’s evaluation and due diligence processes seek to remove as much risk as possible from the investment process through solid analysis of business, economic and legal risk factors to identify claims that can be monetised for fair value in a timely and efficient manner. The underwriting process focuses not only on legal merits, damages and collection risk, but also on the entire business context of the claim. Ultimately, Juridica seeks to invest in claims that are likely to be resolved through settlement in a reasonable time frame.

Juridica Capital Management uses proprietary underwriting guidelines that are based on the team’s 50+ years of combined experience as corporate plaintiff lawyers representing the world’s largest companies. Juridica Capital Management’s team of financial, legal and business experts identify the best investments for the portfolio through an exhaustive evaluation process. After its own internal review of the parties to the dispute, the strategy for the case, the lawyer’s experience in resolving similar claims, and the merits of the claim, Juridica Capital Management uses top-rated lawyers with expertise in the specific subject matter of the dispute to provide an independent review of risk elements. Finally, investments are only completed after a written review by independent ethics and compliance counsel in the relevant jurisdiction(s) to ensure that the specific transaction complies with local laws and, where applicable, professional ethics requirements.
