In 2020 the Australian Government is conducting a Parliamentary Inquiry into the Class Actions regime and the role of dispute financiers in the Australian landscape. Omni Bridgeway welcomes the opportunity to make submissions to the Parliamentary Joint Committee which has been established to consider regulatory reform. We support reform of the Australian class action regime and regulation of dispute financiers operating in this country.
Omni Bridgeway’s submission to the Parliamentary Joint Committee can be found here.
Our feedback on the Regulatory Impact Statement– regulation of litigation funders under the Corporations Act of 15 June 2020 prepared by Treasury can be found here.
Omni Bridgeway has extensive relationships across the finance, legal and adjacent industries. We work with leading law firms, academics, arbitrators, mediators, market analysts, economists and other experts throughout the world. Here we share links to Australian class actions commentary from a selection of leading organisations and individuals, in addition to Court decisions and our own materials.
As Australia’s leading dispute financier, we have advocated for appropriate industry regulation and governance in Australia. Our submissions to previous industry reviews and Inquiries in Australia, along with a selection of publications and podcasts
on class actions, are available here.
