Debt Advisory

BlueGamma provides debt advisory teams with independent, mid-market swap rates and forward curves — the data you need to benchmark bank quotes, advise clients on hedging, and maintain auditable records.

Why Debt Advisors Need Independent Rate Data

Debt advisory firms sit between borrowers and banks. When advising on interest rate hedging, you need:

• Independent mid-market rates to benchmark swap quotes from hedging banks
• Timestamped data for audit trails and regulatory compliance
• Historical rates to analyse market movements and inform client recommendations
• Fast, self-service access — you can't wait for a broker callback when a client needs a number now

Relying on bank-provided rates creates a conflict of interest. Your clients expect you to verify pricing independently.

How BlueGamma Helps

Typical Debt Advisory Workflow

1. Client asks you to evaluate a bank's swap quote for a £50M term loan
2. Pull the current mid-market SONIA swap rate from BlueGamma for the same tenor
3. Compare against the bank's all-in rate to identify the margin
4. Present the analysis with timestamped BlueGamma data as your independent reference
5. Use historical data to show the client how rates have moved over recent weeks
