highly customized research solutions, experienced team and top quality service standards have
won us accolades from clients.
We provide assistance to clients in their investment research process across the lifecycle - from
idea generation through active surveillance. By taking on heavy lifting tasks, we help our clients
redirect their bandwidth for more value-added initiatives such as focused idea generation, more
in-depth research, frequent meetings with company management, effective client servicing, and
optimal risk management. In addition, we offer cost effective research solutions, with in-built
flexibility, and the same or different time zone advantage.
We provide research and analytics support across major areas of credit research including
corporate credit (investment/non-investment grade, distressed, and leveraged loans), macro
strategy (sovereign/municipals), structured finance (CMBS/RMBS/ABS), fixed income (interest
rates, debt securities), currency (spot/forward exchange rates analytics), and commodities.
We support clients with a range of modelling and report writing services. These range from
credit notes / tearsheets, cash flow forecast models, coverage maintenance, shadow rating
analysis, covenants analysis, relative valuation, screening and news updates to services such as
surveillance and risk monitoring/reporting and counterparty risk analysis.
Our experience spans all major sectors including industrials, banks and financials, consumer,
energy/utilities, basic materials, telecom, technology, and others.
Corporate Credit Research
On the corporate credit side, our services cover the entire investment research process of a
buy/sell-side firm, from screening new ideas to deep-dives, through monitoring corporate credits
for earnings, corporate actions, credit events, and material news updates. We provide support
across the debt structure or rating categories - investment grade, high yield, distressed debt, and
leveraged loans.

models and credit notes across developed and emerging markets and across sectors. The cash
flow models and credit notes/ tearsheets/ profiles typically include:

Organization structure and capital structure (as per structural subordination)
Liquidity, financial covenants, and headroom analysis
Credit overview and summary
Key credit positives and negatives, key risks and mitigants
Business description, segmental overview, and key operating metrics
Financial, debt structure, liquidity, and covenants analysis
Relative valuation (peer comps) and financial tables
The level of detail and the nature of analysis is customized to each client’s specific requirement.
High yield research
We provide focused, deep-dive research support for high yield which commands more active
monitoring of credits in terms of regular news monitoring, credit event updates, and timely
earnings updates. Our services cater to both buy-side as well as sell-side teams. We assist clients
with detailed cash flow models, notes/tearsheets/profiles, organization and capital structure,
relative valuation (peer comps) and bond comps. Further, our analysis also covers aspects such
as deleveraging, financial / negative covenants analysis and stress testing for both public and
private companies.
In addition to issuer analysis, we also provide support on security analysis, in terms of preparing
bond/loan term sheets with summary of key terms and conditions, summary of key affirmative
and negative covenants, and indenture screening.
Distressed debt research
Our distressed debt research team provides support in identifying and analyzing stressed and
distressed investment ideas in the global markets, through in-depth bankruptcy and recovery
analysis. We provide support across credit situations such as non-performing loans/assets,
business or/and financial restructuring cases, debtor in possession (DIP), 363 sale, etc and at
various stages of the investment process. Typically, this is done through services such as:
Quantitative and qualitative screening of ideas (stressed, or near stressed, or distressed)
Crisp insightful tearsheets,
Deep-dive financial models/analysis

News and events monitoring + impact analysis
