The Engine Behind the Deal: Why We're Investing in Cashflows
17 March 2026
Cashflows underpin every major decision in structured finance—how deals get structured, how assets get priced, how performance gets measured. While the public markets are built on decades of processes and analytical tooling, product development hasn't kept pace with the demands of the market, especially as it relates to the private credit, asset-backed finance sector. We're changing that.
Cashflows Are the Connective Tissue
dv01 is built on a single premise: to support issuers and investors' workflow end-to-end. This means that the tools and data powering each stage of the deal lifecycle should be fully integrated. Whether a client is evaluating a loan pool for acquisition, managing a warehouse facility, structuring a new securitization or forward flow, monitoring post-close performance, or reporting to investors—their data travels with them across each stage. And where applicable, so does the cashflow engine underpinning it all.
That's intentional. Cashflows aren't a feature confined to one part of the workflow. When an asset manager is bidding on a loan pool, they need accurate cashflow projections to assess value. When issuers are structuring a new securitization or forward flow in DealStudio, they're stress-testing deal structures and cashflow assumptions. And after a deal closes, investors and issuers alike are measuring realized performance against original projections. Every critical decision in the ABF lifecycle runs through cashflows—which is why investing in the engine means investing in the entire workflow.
What We're Building
We're extending our cashflow engine to support the full complexity of ABF—broader asset class coverage, richer scenario modeling, and tighter integration across the platform. Each enhancement is designed not as a standalone feature, but as infrastructure that makes every part of the workflow — bidding, structuring, and surveillance—more accurate and more connected.
What's Coming
Each enhancement we ship will be grounded in the same mission. As we build out the cashflow engine, we'll be one step closer to giving the ABF market the infrastructure it needs — and deserves. We'll be sharing updates as we release new capabilities, and each one will be a step toward that integrated vision.
