Quick answers
- What is Synthetic Insurance?
A contract that produces real, bank-grade collateral — priced against the risk, not the borrower.
- Who benefits from it?
The bank keeps the loan and the customer. The borrower gets funded. The bank's credit policy doesn't have to bend.
- When is it used?
When a good C&I loan is short on collateral, history, or guarantee — not for every deal, just the ones that would otherwise die in credit.
- How is pricing determined?
Every deal is scored against defined risk parameters and priced against the risk that's actually there.
- What happens if there's a claim?
A defined process, not an open question. See the full claim process.
- Why does this work when other options don't?
The loan never changes, the bank stays lender of record, and the borrower pays for it.
Trust & Security
Your trust, our priority
At CollateralEdge, we go beyond compliance — we build confidence. Our commitment to security, transparency, and data integrity empowers you to transact with certainty.
SOC 2 Type 2 Compliant
CollateralEdge maintains a SOC 2 Type 2 certification for the AICPA Security Trust Criteria. The company maintains a robust system of internal controls supported by a sound information security program to protect internal systems and sensitive data. CollateralEdge undergoes periodic audits of its SOC 2 program.
Logical Security
CollateralEdge follows the principle of least privilege, granting employees and contractors only the access needed for their roles. Role-based access controls, strong passwords, and MFA secure critical IT systems, with regular access reviews and formal onboarding, offboarding, and role change procedures in place.
Data Encryption
Sensitive data is secured by encryption in-transit and at-rest using industry standard encryption practices. This means data is encrypted both while it is stored on IT systems and while it is transferred from one system to another.
Physical Security
CollateralEdge applications and supporting infrastructure are hosted in AWS datacenters and protected by AWS's physical and environmental security controls. Amazon ensures physical access is restricted to authorized personnel and that required redundancies are in place.
Penetration Testing
CollateralEdge performs regular penetration testing as part of its Information Security and SOC 2 Compliance programs to improve security posture and remove any vulnerabilities open to attacks or hacking. All vulnerabilities are tracked, appropriately patched, and tested.
Amazon Web Services
The CollateralEdge platform was developed using industry best practices for data security, data storage, and load balancing. CollateralEdge leverages AWS best practices and tools to deploy, manage, and monitor its AWS resources.
