Burford Capital Ltd

Burford Capital Limited is a legal finance firm registered in Guernsey at Oak House, St Peter Port, and listed on the New York Stock Exchange under BUR. EDGAR classifies it under SIC 6199, Finance Services, with a December 31 fiscal year end, and its filing history runs from 2017. It is an Exchange Act reporting company and has filed no Form D notices under this CIK, so the Form D fields on this profile are not applicable and are recorded as zero rather than as measured values. Its debt is issued through an indirect subsidiary, Burford Capital Global Finance LLC, and guaranteed by the parent. On 2021-04-05 that subsidiary closed a $400,000,000 private offering of 6.250% senior notes due 2028, guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by Burford Capital and two subsidiary guarantors (Form 6-K, accession 0001104659-21-047106). On 2026-09-14 the company filed a Form 8-K (accession 0001714174-26-000099) disclosing a private offering of $300,000,000 of senior secured notes due 2029 through the same subsidiary, and a conditional notice to redeem all $400,000,000 of the 2028 notes on 2026-09-24, conditioned on the issuer receiving at least $300,000,000 of new debt proceeds on or before that date. The company's announcement of the same day states the new notes priced at an 8.000% coupon and are secured on a senior lien basis over substantially all of the issuing subsidiary's assets and the capital stock of certain other subsidiaries. The company has issued further note series through the same subsidiary since 2021, including notes due 2030, 2031, 2033 and 2034, each announced in an EDGAR filing; their individual sizes and coupons were not verified for this profile and are therefore not stated here.

A listed operating company rather than a pooled vehicle or platform, tracked here because its subsidiary debt programme is the instrument retail and adviser audiences encounter, and because litigation finance sits inside AltStreet's coverage. The relevant filings are Exchange Act reports, not Form D notices: 8-K and 6-K current reports carry the note offerings and redemptions, and the announcements filed as exhibits carry the coupons. The September 2026 transaction moves one tranche from senior unsecured to senior secured and raises its coupon by 175 basis points, from 6.250% to 8.000%, while replacing a 2028 maturity with a 2029 one.
