Spear's Review

Harbour’s senior director of legal finance, Oliver Way, manages a portfolio of disputes with a focus on offshore jurisdictions, particularly those connected to Australia, Canada and Brazil. Established in 2007, the company is a privately-owned litigation funder which has raised more than $1 billion of third-party capital, covering cases in 13 jurisdictions.
