International arbitration
proceedings can be expensive
Funding from Deminor allows parties to pursue their claims without the burden of upfront costs.

How does Deminor’s funding process work?
Case Evaluation
A client or its law firm can submit a request for funding to Deminor’s experienced case management team. They will carry out diligence and ask a number of questions to analyse the merits, the risks, and the economics of the case. The case management team will then seek the approval of Deminor’s Investment Committee to invest in an appropriate case.
Funding Approval
Upon approval, Deminor will enter into a funding agreement with the client to provide the necessary capital to cover some or all of the costs of the arbitration, including legal fees, expert witness fees, tribunal costs, disbursements, and administrative expenses. Deminor can also provide funding to cover the costs of an ATE insurance premium, or provide an indemnity, to cover the risk of adverse costs.
Arbitration Proceedings
With funding secured, the client can proceed confidently with their arbitration case, knowing that finances are no longer an obstacle and the risks have been mitigated.Success and Receipt of Proceeds
In the event of a successful arbitration outcome, Deminor will receive reimbursement of its funding in addition to a pre-agreed success fee.
