Legal Futures highlights astrophysicists doing complex modeling at Burford

Legal Futures profiles Burford’s use of data science–and even mentions the use of “astrophysicists to help cut its loss rate.”
Quoting CEO Christopher Bogart’s recent interview on John Quinn’s “Law, disrupted” podcast, the article cites Bogart as saying: “What we’ve developed over the last half dozen years is a real data science function, where we are investing in people and systems to capture and analyse data and apply it as a core element of our process.’
Bogart adds: ‘I have astrophysicists who do very complex modelling.’”
