Forward-looking ALM that provides actionable, real-time insights with service that is customized to your needs.
Business Challenges Solved
From day one, we’ve helped our clients go beyond checking regulatory boxes by using ALM strategically to tackle real business challenges. Balancing regulatory simplicity with deeper insights, our consultants use an Interactive Dashboard to explore what-if scenarios live, tailored to your needs. Paired with a clear Results Summary, each simulation helps answer critical risk/return questions that drive better decisions.
Our Approach
Whether you process Quarterly or Monthly, data is simple to send, communication is clear, and simulations are often returned in as little as 5 days.
We work with you the way you work best – we can work through email or scheduled calls or a combination. It’s your choice.
We document key assumptions and agreements with each simulation, making it easy for you to stay informed, work with examiners, and validate model setup.
Our customized presentations are designed to be an engaging review and discussion of results, including any decision-making what-ifs you request with every simulation.

Future ALM Results
Think of the Future ALM Results as a fast-forward button for your balance sheet. It helps you understand, in advance, whether the long-term risks embedded in your budgets and business plans align with your appetite for risk.
Non-Maturity Deposit Behavior and Pricing Analysis
An important aspect of understanding the long-term profitability and interest rate risk position of your institution is to understand the behavior of your unique non-maturity deposit structure, and how that structure changes as rates change.
Our Non-Maturity Deposit Behavior and Pricing Analysis goes beyond simplistic linear “betas” and standard “decay rates”, incorporating the dynamic relationship between your institution’s pricing, market interest rates, and customers’ behavior, providing:
Loan Prepayment Speed Analysis
Capture your customers’ unique prepayment behaviors with this loan-by-loan prepayment speed analysis. Use it to fine-tune loan category prepayment assumptions and model more accurate cash flows for ALM and budgeting, as well as to provide observable assumptions rationale.
Assumptions Review & Documentation of Rationale
A key question to be addressed in simulating potentials for the future is: What is our solid rationale for making these assumptions? Imagine having the answer to this question in a user-friendly document. This includes historically based data to support your institution’s position on assumptions, including deposit pricing and withdrawals, cash flows, and prepayments. Stress testing of key assumptions is also included.
Backtesting
An easy-to-navigate document that provides backtesting of model starting points and forecasts for a variety of model assumptions.
Concentration Risk Policy Review & Development
Develop a clear and meaningful concentration risk policy. We’ll guide you through the thinking behind different types of concentration limits and the pitfalls that can lead to unintended consequences. This can be a key component of quantifying aggregate risks to capital.
