Me too. Gunnar ---- On a Mission to Open Markets to ‘Real People’ https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-02-01/podcast-afolami-wants-to… Bim Afolami, the UK Economic Secretary to the Treasury, says he’s on a mission to “connect capital markets” with “real people.” The City Minister joins hosts Francine Lacqua and Allegra Stratton on this week’s episode of In the City to explain why he wants members of the public to be as interested in holding equities as some are in cryptocurrency. “We need to make sure they feel as engaged in the public markets,” he says.

Anarchy for the USA

Death for all priests and police. Elena and her friends succeeded in getting the priest to have a public debate with a roving anarchist agitator named Luigi Galleani who they claimed to dislike, and when the night arrived, this pig priest had his local power and mystique systematically destroyed by this agitator, for the whole community to see, and only the sole sacristan, an Austrian, comforted the priest in his defeat https://www.anarchistnews.org/content/elena-purgatorio-or-brief-history-gal… Reposts not fake cypherpunk crap from fake crap Larsony and Semich.

Will The UK Supreme Court Decision In PACCAR Affect Hong Kong Litigation Funding? - Litigation Finance Journal

Will The UK Supreme Court Decision In PACCAR Affect Hong Kong Litigation Funding? - Litigation Finance Journal Check out my recent article: https://litigationfinancejournal.com/will-the-uk-supreme-court-decision-in-… Gunnar Will The UK Supreme Court Decision In PACCAR Affect Hong Kong Litigation Funding? - Litigation Finance Journal The Hong Kong Department of Justice’s approach to litigation finance and third party funding is coming into greater focus following the UK Supreme Court’s July 26, 2023 ruling on R. (on the Application of PACCAR Inc) v Competition Appeal Tribunal [2023] UKSC 28. Mondaq reports that PACCAR has defined “damaged-base agreements” or “DBAs” in the United Kingdom. DBAs are strictly regulated in the UK, now including litigation funding agreement contract law. Many UK courts have operated under the assumption that funding of litigation agreements does not fall under the purview of DBAs. PACCAR’s Supreme Court decision has sparked a fervent debate around this topic. Mondaq says that Hong Kong DBA relevancy differs from the UKs DBA approach. Specifically, in Hong Kong, champerty and maintenance are illegal factors that can lead to a fine and prison sentence. It’s important to note that Hong Kong does allow waivers to the general prohibition of litigation investment if: 1. Third parties share a common interest in funding the outcome of a case. 2. Accessible justice is a prime consideration. 3. Insolvency proceedings are necessary.
