Solutions for Structured Finance
FactSet provides instant access to accurate source data and integrated analytics to the structured finance industry.
Up-to-the-Minute Global Filings
Access hundreds of thousands of global prospectuses, SEC filings, and M&A documents through an easy-to-use website. Every week thousands of new prospectuses are added in real-time to the FactSet Global Filings database allowing you to find, within seconds, prospectuses of asset-backed deals and their critical clauses.
Comprehensive Search Within Deal Documents
Download full prospectuses or browse the HTML version to access full document texts. Refine your research with a detailed summary of a deal. Or, easily find information you need with dynamic searches, targeting specific words, phrases, numbers, clauses, and fields across key prospectuses and critical clauses within debt, equity, derivative, and M&A deals.
Access to Deal Structures and Details
Quickly prepare your reports and deals with the necessary documentation. Check precedents, identify a company's typical risk factors from its prospectuses, and note the differences between the preliminary "red herring" statement and the final prospectus. Track recent deals and research unusual clauses or deals to review how similar cases have been handled and reduce your risk exposure. Finally, compare your structured deals to those of peers and use examples to demonstrate why these deals will sell.
