Burford Capital Limited announced on May 14, 2025, that MSCI, for its MSCI Global Standard Indexes, changed Burford Capital's country classification to USA from the United Kingdom. This reclassification is effective June 2, 2025, following its implementation at the close on May 30, 2025.
As a result of this change, Burford will be added to the MSCI USA Indexes and MSCI US Equity Standard and Small Cap Indexes. Concurrently, the company will be deleted from the MSCI United Kingdom Indexes.
This reclassification is expected to cause a rotation of passive holdings from Burford's London stock line to its New York stock line in the immediate term. The move aligns with Burford's earlier transition to a US domestic issuer status, reflecting its growing US investor base and market presence.
