Technical Expertise in Structured Credit and Asset-Backed Investments, Backed by Decades of Experience

Our asset‑backed finance (ABF) team delivers high‑quality private market insights and differentiated advisory services built on decades of structured credit experience. We bring deep expertise across collateral types and asset classes, including, but not limited to, securitizations, loan pools, synthetic structures and other esoteric investments.

As an independent financial advisor, Lincoln’s ABF team supports clients in determining fair value and provides services tailored to each client’s unique needs. We partner closely with clients throughout the valuation process, aligning with reporting requirements and timelines, and leverage both proprietary and third‑party modeling capabilities specifically designed for the private ABF market.
