Ensuring the Protection of Collateral Assets & Investments

The lending industry can be very complex. In this ever-changing market the risks are constantly shifting, creating different requirements for financial institutions. Our highly trained, experienced staff review the safeguarding of insurable interest, ensuring the protection of collateral assets and investments.

A Strategic 360° Set of Reviews to Identify Risks and Protect Lender Insurable Interests

We strategize to create solutions for a successful closing, offering industry-specific risk advisory and analysis wherever applicable. We are proficient in ensuring that borrowers follow all lender insurance requirements. Our thorough reviews are not limited to just certificate and policy reviews, but also include compliance with the lender’s requirements, and do so in conjunction with reviewing supporting documents, such as appraisals, engineering reports, zoning reports, property condition reports, environmental reports, flood determinations, seismic reports, reps and warranties and any other documentation needed to verify and identify the risks and protect the lender’s insurable interest pre/post-closing.

Full Transparency into Our Process from Start to Finish

We will work closely with our clients the entire process, from the initial engagement through closing. Whether it be a securitization or syndication, we will be sure that all parties involved have a clear understanding with our process and all stages of our review.
