The game-changing technology can help all market participants involved in the issuance of a deal, enabling borrowers to share their performance history effortlessly, underwriters to analyze several parameters seamlessly to make quick structuring decisions, and investors to monitor performance with first-of-its-kind detail and transparency. This tech-forward approach also models borrower risk with greater accuracy.

“Percent is proud to be a pioneer in bringing unprecedented levels of transparency to the private debt market, and this acquisition of enterprise-level surveillance technology will accelerate our ability to revolutionize the space for all market participants,” said Nelson Chu, Founder and CEO of Percent. “This will greatly enhance and augment our existing surveillance capabilities, a critical piece of any private market transaction.
