We combine backgrounds from the FDIC, Treasury Department, private sector banking, and academic institutions.  As the leading expert in the RMBS fallout in the last decade, our experts examined the factors that should have alerted originators to future default risk in stressful times; reviewed the efficacy of due diligence on loan-underwriting and flags that were missed; and testified in courts throughout the U.S. regarding the losses in thousands of securitizations.  Our underwriting experts supported this work through review of over a quarter-million loans.

We serve banks, credit unions, and regulators with stress testing, modeling of returns during hard times and bad economic conditions, and provide underwriting, loan review, due diligence, and collateral valuation services.
