ILFA adds Loopa Finance as member, deepening global footprint in Latin America and Europe

The International Legal Finance Association has expanded its global membership with the addition of Loopa Finance, a litigation and arbitration funder active across Latin America and continental Europe, marking a strategic boost to ILFA’s influence in two of the fastest growing legal finance markets.

Rupert Cunningham, ILFA’s Director of Growth and Membership Engagement, said Loopa’s entry strengthens the association’s ability to engage with policymakers across the region and in the European Union, noting that Loopa’s regional expertise aligns with ILFA’s push to shape national and cross border frameworks for commercial legal finance.

Loopa, founded in 2020 and formerly known as Qanlex, said the move reflects its commitment to transparent and innovative funding practices, with LatAm General Counsel Juliana Giorgi emphasising that association membership enhances the firm’s capacity to contribute to a more responsible global funding ecosystem.
