Operating infrastructure for complex credit and alternative assets.

Massena builds the analytics, valuation, and servicing systems that private credit funds, family offices, originators, and ABS issuers actually need to run institutional portfolios. We build the tracking systems that let you monitor in real time, intervene early, and protect collateral value before problems become losses.

Built by practitioners. Trusted by institutional capital.

Partner-led engagements

Built for capital allocators who need both sides of the house.

We work with a deliberately narrow set of institutional buyers. Each engagement looks different, but the common thread is a need for finance fluency and engineering capability under the same roof.

Private Credit Funds

Direct lending, asset-based lending, and specialty credit managers professionalizing operations for institutional capital and Fund II.

Family Offices

Single and multi-family offices allocating directly into private credit, litigation finance, and specialty assets without administrators built for them.

Specialty Finance Originators

Consumer and small-business lenders building the analytics, servicing, and capital markets infrastructure to access warehouse and ABS markets.

Litigation Funders

Pre-settlement, post-settlement, mass tort, and commercial litigation finance managers needing valuation, surveillance, and LP-ready reporting.

ABS Issuers & Sponsors

Structured credit platforms and ABS issuers running master trusts and revolving facilities, where borrowing base and covenant accuracy is non-negotiable.

Charged-Off Debt Buyers

Post-charge-off receivables purchasers needing portfolio analytics, ERC modeling, recovery curve back-tests, and the reporting infrastructure to support continued bidding and capital raises.

Warehouse & Senior Lenders

Banks and credit funds providing facilities to specialty platforms, needing independent borrower surveillance, collateral verification, and backup servicing oversight as a condition of lending.

Insurance & Annuity Writers

Insurers and annuity providers allocating into private credit, structured settlements, and royalty streams. Specific reserving, marking, and regulatory reporting needs that off-the-shelf administrators do not cover.

We build force multipliers, not deliverables.

Most consultancies leave you with a deck. We leave you with a working system, documented assumptions, and the institutional memory to operate it after we're gone.

01 · Domain first

Finance, then engineering.

We model litigation finance waterfalls, ABS triggers, and borrowing base mechanics because we have lived in them. The technology is in service of the finance, not the other way around. Our solutions architects can read a credit agreement before they write the SQL.

02 · Partner-led

No staff augmentation, no hand-offs.

Every engagement is led by a Managing Director or Director who stays involved from first call to delivery. You are talking to the people writing the code and reading the indenture. The trade-off is we work with a small number of clients at a time. That is by design.

03 · Build, do not just advise

Deliverables ship in production.

Dashboards your CFO actually opens. AWS pipelines that survive an audit. Valuation models with documented assumptions you can defend to LPs. We are accountable for what we build past the close date.

04 · Institutional-grade

Built for the diligence you have not faced yet.

Our clients raise institutional capital. That means everything we deliver, from data lineage to backup servicing readiness to covenant test documentation, is built to clear LP, lender, and auditor scrutiny on the first ask.

A full-stack partner for private credit operations.

From transaction structuring to ongoing portfolio surveillance, we cover the operational layer that turns a credit strategy into an institutional platform.

Programmatic Asset Management

Custom analytics, valuation, and surveillance platforms for private credit funds, family offices, and originators. Borrowing base automation, covenant testing, real-time portfolio dashboards built on serverless AWS infrastructure.

We work where standard models don't.

Our practice is built around the asset classes that institutional infrastructure has not yet caught up to. Each requires its own valuation logic, its own data, its own servicing assumptions.

01
Litigation Finance
Pre-settlement consumer advances, post-settlement annuities, mass tort, and commercial litigation. We model recovery curves and reserve methodology that auditors accept.
Non-recourse · Stage-gated
02
Consumer Receivables
Unsecured installment, retail, and specialty consumer credit. Bureau-augmented underwriting models, surveillance, and servicing oversight for performing and NPL books.
ABS · NPL
03
Structured Credit
Master trust structures, ABS issuance, payment waterfalls, and indenture compliance. Borrowing base engines and trustee-grade reporting.
ABS · Indenture
04
Specialty Finance
Direct lending, asset-based lending, equipment finance, and other niche specialty platforms. We professionalize the operating infrastructure for Fund II and beyond.
Direct lending · ABL
05

A sample of recent engagements across the platforms we serve. Names redacted; results documented.

Capital Markets Specialty Finance

Credit facility recap, $55M to $75M with accordion

Orchestrated a competitive lender process for a specialty finance platform. Upsized the facility, added a $25M accordion, increased the advance rate, and hedged interest rate exposure. Massena continues to administer the borrowing base certificate post-close.

Valuation Litigation Finance

Institutional valuation framework for litigation finance fund

Rebuilt the valuation methodology position by position for a litigation finance manager raising Fund II. Three asset classes, one position master, one quarterly valuation pack, documented assumptions. Cleared institutional LP diligence.

Read case study
Infrastructure Private Credit

Serverless monitoring platform for a private debt fund

Engineered an automated collateral monitoring engine on AWS Lambda, S3, and Aurora. Real-time covenant testing across the portfolio, predictive flags for upcoming breaches, and a fully implemented backup servicing plan that cleared LP diligence.

Read case study
Operations Consumer Credit

Borrowing base & covenant engine for an ABS issuer

Codified every eligibility criterion, concentration limit, and trigger into a single rule engine. Monthly close compressed from five days to one. The treasurer now scenario-tests new origination programs against live data instead of estimates.

Read case study
Portfolio Monitoring Family Office

Consolidated alternatives reporting for a single-family office

Built a unified portfolio monitor for a family office allocating across private credit, litigation finance, real estate debt, and a direct sponsor co-invest. One quarterly book replacing four manager PDFs and a back-of-envelope rollup. Now produces look-through exposure, vintage IRR, and concentration risk in one view the principal actually opens.

Due Diligence Specialty Finance

Buy-side diligence on a $180M consumer portfolio acquisition

Ran technical and financial diligence on a specialty finance platform's consumer receivables book for an institutional buyer. Reconciled the loan tape against the servicing system, back-tested seller-provided vintage curves, and surfaced a concentration anomaly that supported a 6% price reduction. IC memo delivered in 18 days.

We thrive in messy data and complex structures.

Every portfolio we touch arrives with its own file formats, its own indenture language, and its own quirks the prior team worked around. We absorb that complexity once, codify it, and turn it into intelligence that runs every day. The result is reporting that holds up to LP, lender, and auditor scrutiny on the first ask.

Reconciliation
Two-sided tie-out as a default

Every position is reconciled across servicer, custodian, paying agent, and borrowing base on every cycle. Variances surface automatically with audit trails. No more month-end fire drills to explain a $42 break.

Codified rules
Indenture as code

Eligibility criteria, concentration limits, triggers, and waterfalls live as version-controlled rules instead of analyst tribal knowledge. When the credit agreement amends, the engine updates in hours, not the next reporting cycle.

AI · Conversational
Ask your portfolio anything

A private, context-aware language model sits over the warehouse. Analysts and principals query in plain English, asking questions like "show me obligors trending toward concentration limits" or "which vintages are underperforming the underwriting case," and get answers grounded in your data. Nothing leaves your environment.

Practitioners, not generalists.
