Winston & Strawn is proud to sponsor the IMN Litigation Finance Forum 2025 at the Union League Club in New York City. The IMN Litigation Finance Forum is the premier conference for relationship building, thought leadership, and business development in the litigation funding space. Now in its 7th year, the event’s program includes multiple panel discussions, roundtables, and structured meet-ups to exchange insights and build valuable connections.
Chris Capitanelli, partner in Winston’s Structured Finance and Esoteric Finance practices, will be a featured speaker on the panel entitled "What Impacts Are Regulation, Disclosure, Ethics and Transparency Having on Dealmaking" at 4:25 PM ET in the General Session of the conference, located in the Lincoln Hall.
The panel will discuss:
- What recent legislative action is threatening to restrict funding? What court cases and legal decisions are impacting funders?
- What are current concerns around disclosure and transparency?
- What ethical conflicts of interest are regulators targeting?
- Where is the UK heading? Exploring the differences between US and UK regulation
- Are there ethical concerns around the participation of private equity and institutional investors in the legal market?
- Is more regulation the answer? Where is regulation important and where is it limiting opportunity?
- What should we make of claims regarding foreign financing and national security concerns?
Also in attendance at the conference will be Pete Morgan, partner and Co-Chair of Winston’s Structured Finance and Esoteric Finance practices, and Dan Passage, senior counsel in the same practices.
