Pravati Capital Partners with SEI, Provides Advisors with Expanded Access To Litigation Finance as Alternative Investment

Key Terms

litigation finance financial

Litigation finance is when a third party pays the legal costs for a lawsuit in return for a portion of any money recovered if the case succeeds. Think of it like an investor backing a movie—covering upfront costs in exchange for a share of future earnings—so companies or plaintiffs can pursue claims without draining cash. For investors, it creates a new source of potential returns and risk tied to legal outcomes, cash flow timing, and the quality of the underlying claim.

alternative investment financial

Assets and strategies outside traditional stocks, bonds and cash, such as real estate, private equity, hedge funds, commodities, art and certain digital assets; they often have different ways of making money and different rules for buying and selling. Investors use them to change how a portfolio behaves—like adding spices to a meal to alter the flavor—because they can reduce overall risk or boost returns, but they may be harder to sell, cost more, and carry unique risks.

registered investment advisors (RIAs) financial

Registered investment advisors (RIAs) are firms or individuals who manage other people’s investment portfolios and must register with securities regulators and legally act in their clients’ best interest. For investors, that legal duty plus required disclosures about fees and conflicts offers greater transparency and alignment with personal goals—think of an RIA as a trusted mechanic who must explain recommended repairs and can’t put their own profit ahead of your needs.
