BURFORD CAPITAL APPOINTS ANDREA MULLER NON-EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

Burford Capital Limited, the leading global finance and asset management firm focused on law, today announces the appointment with immediate effect of Andrea Muller as a non-executive director.

Ms. Muller (61) is an accomplished international finance professional who came to the financial services industry after more than a decade at global law firm Shearman & Sterling, where she was a European partner.

Most recently, Ms. Muller was an Executive Director and Global Head Institutional Business at Principal Global Investors, where she was previously CEO of Asia. Before that, Ms. Muller was a Managing Director and Head of Asia Pacific for Fitch Ratings and a Managing Director at UBS in both Singapore and Paris. She began her career at Shearman & Sterling, where she worked as a corporate lawyer in both New York and Paris. Her law degree is from Georgetown University Law Center, where she served on the Law Review, as is her undergraduate degree (cum laude), from its School of Foreign Service. She also received a Masters in European Union Studies at the College of Europe in Bruges, Belgium.

Ms. Muller will also serve on Burford's audit committee, where three of four members are now directors appointed within the past twelve months.

Sir Peter Middleton, Burford's Chairman, commented:

"We are delighted to have Andrea join the Burford board. Having held senior positions in the US, Europe and Asia, she brings a breadth of international experience that will be invaluable to Burford, particularly as the business continues its global expansion, and her strong legal background makes her particularly well-qualified to take on this role. Given our long-standing work to build a team of diverse people across our business, we are also delighted to welcome Andrea as Burford's first female board member."
