Client Cases
The Context
A European-based AIFM hired Finalyse for the independent valuation of illiquid assets to ensure compliance with AIFM Directive and the EU Securitisation Regulation (2017/2402). The goal was to provide a fully auditable NAV for regulators and investors.
The Solution
We supported the Risk Management team in screening portfolios of ABS, CLOs, and private debt, applying specialised Mark-to-Model methodologies based on cash flow analysis and collateral performance.
Finalyse managed the end-to-end process:
- Independent Pricing: Fair value calculation for assets without active market prices.
- Reconciliation: Systematic analysis and explanation of discrepancies against broker quotes.
- Regulatory Due Diligence: Delivery of mandatory pre-trade and ongoing Due Diligence reports, monitoring structural triggers and risk retention.
The Result
A robust, documented valuation framework ensuring full regulatory transparency and NAV reliability.
