This auction system, utilized by U.S. Treasuries and other institutional debt markets, allows investors and originators to determine a market-clearing APY that’s desirable for all parties. With the Dutch auction, Cadence is unlocking the private credit market by helping rebalance the risk-reward equation.
The auction system adds yet another layer of transparency to Cadence’s platform, giving investors a direct channel to voice their risk tolerance levels, while ensuring loan originators are given more clarity around the bookbuilding process.
“We believe that in periods of heightened volatility as we’ve witnessed recently, a platform that promotes the value of transparency must step up and introduce innovative concepts that push the private credit asset class forward into the mainstream,” said Nelson Chu, Founder & CEO of Cadence.
