Structured Finance

When it comes to valuing fixed-income assets, including mortgage loans and asset-backed securities and derivatives, it’s critical to understand how each loan portfolio or security is distinctly different. That’s why it’s critical to work with professionals who have the industry experience, product knowledge, and technical expertise to understand these nuances and deliver accurately.
