FAQ
What are CleanSheets?
Our quarterly investment CleanSheets provide you clean, accurate private credit data instantly, saving you hundreds of hours on investment analysis each year. We source data directly from the top private credit lenders, covering over $100B in assets across 1,500+ companies and 5,000+ individual investments. We package this data in a unified Excel format so all you need to do is download + start analyzing!
What are the key benefits of your service?
Save time (and money): Historically, investment analysts were forced to download filings individually by company and manually clean the data and standardize the format in Excel. Our data reports do all that work for you instantly, saving you valuable time & money so you can focus more on the analysis rather than pulling the data together. What used to take you months will now take hours!
Rich industry insights: closely monitor competitors, gain insight into industry trends and benchmarks to inform your investment and business strategies.
Deeper diligence: get granular, transparent data, better identifying investment weaknesses and opportunities. Track the portfolio better with the most up-to-date information on an individual investment basis.
