Through our experience and continued presence in this sector of the financial markets, we have the ability to assess public finance market conditions as they continue to evolve. This allows us to formulate optimal funding and portfolio management strategies and provide attractive, flexible financing terms to our clients.

Cutwater's experienced public finance team and analytical resources (including loan level prepay modeling and asset surveillance capability) provides clients with the benefit of an asset manager that understands the intricacies of structuring and managing public finance platforms where investors', lenders' and borrowers' needs are considered and met.

Working closely with governments, regulators, rating agencies, service providers, clients and investors, Cutwater structures each funding platform and (following the raising of capital) manages all key aspects of each such entity. We firmly believe in a hands on approach, directly managing as many of the aspects of each platform as we can, thereby ensuring that we both understand and effectively manage all day-to-day aspects of each fund over its lifetime. Each financing platform is customized to accommodate the specific requirements of clients, investors, regulators and the idiosyncrasies of each asset class. In addition, each platform is managed by sector specialists (portfolio managers and credit officers) and an independent board of directors that is populated by highly experienced and well regarded professionals with specific knowledge of that particular market segment.
