Houlihan Lokey introduced its Private Credit DataBank, a proprietary dataset and analytics platform that aggregates more than 60,000 loan valuations dating back to 2017. The database covers direct‑lending transactions for borrowers with EBITDA ranging from under $20 million to over $100 million, and includes both senior and junior debt. Each loan entry contains over 200 standardized fields, such as terms, covenants, pricing metrics, credit ratios, and borrower financials.
The platform offers dynamic valuation tools that allow users to run pricing sensitivities and assess portfolio performance. It also supports tailored reporting by size, sector, capital structure, or geography, and provides visibility into new issuance. The DataBank is designed for investor relations teams, fundraising professionals, valuation specialists, and investment managers who need granular, loan‑level insights into the private credit market.
Houlihan Lokey’s launch of the DataBank is part of a broader strategy to strengthen its Capital Solutions Group, which raised approximately $28 billion in capital over the past 12 months. The move positions the firm to compete with other data providers such as RiskSpan and Preqin, and builds on its history of developing data‑driven tools, including the Private Performing Credit Index launched in 2021.
The DataBank’s time‑series view of loan performance and its comprehensive coverage of borrowers across the private credit spectrum provide clients with deeper analytics and transparency, enabling more informed investment decisions and portfolio management. The launch signals Houlihan Lokey’s continued investment in technology to enhance advisory services and maintain a competitive edge in the growing private credit market.
