Where enforcement is credible.
We commit capital where procedure is institutional and enforcement is credible. Our reach is described by the forums in which we underwrite, not by a map of premises. Other jurisdictions are assessed case by case, and enforcement credibility is the deciding question.

Enforcement discipline
How a forum is assessed.
Every matter is assessed for enforceability before it is considered on its commercial merits. That assessment reflects the credibility of the forum, the traceability of the defendant's assets, and the recognition regime available at the point of collection. A favourable judgment that cannot be collected is not treated as a recovery.
A favourable judgment in an unenforceable jurisdiction is a loss. That single proposition disposes of more inbound matters than any other element of our diligence.
Corporate
Case by case
Fora beyond those listed are considered on their merits. Where a jurisdiction cannot satisfy the enforcement test, we decline clearly and without delay rather than price around the risk.
