A non-traditional financial asset arises from a client's involvement, voluntary or involuntary, in a court or administrative proceeding that must be resolved before any payment is received. They come in many shapes and sizes: a recovery from an antitrust or class action settlement, a litigation claim still in the courts, a claim against a bankrupt counterparty, an insurance recovery held up in dispute.
In practice, these are trapped legal and financial assets. A legal team may not even be aware it holds a claim, finance does not carry it as an asset, and the path to realizing its value can stretch on for years.
Haybeach acquires antitrust claims, litigation recoveries, and related assets, using our own capital to unlock immediate value from claims whose timing and ultimate value are tied to a legal or administrative process.
These claims hold real value, yet they sit between the legal department and the balance sheet with no clear owner. Legal manages them as matters rather than assets, and the path to realizing their value remains uncertain for years.
When Haybeach acquires a claim, the seller receives a defined payment, with no ongoing litigation involvement, no continued outside counsel fees, and no recovery timeline to manage.
