Proskauer Director joins Augusta as Chief Operating Officer<\/a>: <\/p>\n

Augusta the UK\u2019s largest litigation and dispute funding institution by case volume with a team of 70 in London today announces the appointment of Polly Bahl as Chief Operating Officer.<\/p>\n

London, United Kingdom, August 2, 2019 — Augusta, the UK\u2019s largest litigation and dispute funding institution by case volume – with a team of 70 in London – today announces the appointment of Polly Bahl as Chief Operating Officer, based in London. Polly joins from US law firm Proskauer Rose where, as London Director of Professional and Administrative Resources, she coordinated a range of operational functions. A solicitor by training, Polly qualified with SJ Berwin (now King & Wood Mallesons) where she became a partner specialising in private investment funds, a role which latterly incorporated various operational responsibilities.<\/p>\n

Polly\u2019s hiring is the latest addition to Augusta\u2019s senior team following the recent arrivals of Gowling WLG Partner James Foster as Head of International Arbitration and FTI Consulting Managing Director Leor Franks as Chief Marketing Officer. These additions reflect Augusta\u2019s ongoing growth and increasing client demand for dispute and litigation funding.<\/p>\n

Commenting on the appointment, Louis Young, Managing Director at Augusta, said: \u201cWe\u2019re delighted to welcome Polly to Augusta. We\u2019ve been looking to fill this role for some time, and with her wide experience of corporate functions including Risk, IT, HR and Finance and her legal background, Polly will play a key role in this important phase of our growth\u201d.<\/p>\n

Polly Bahl commented: \u201cI\u2019m really pleased to be part of the continued expansion of Augusta\u2019s operations given the exciting opportunities for further development in the UK and internationally. I\u2019m very much looking forward to working with Augusta’s capable team and to help further develop a leading player in litigation and dispute funding\u201d.<\/p>\n
