Loop Capital Markets created Loop Financial Products (LFP) as a wholly owned entity to directly serve as qualified swap counterparty to our municipal underwriting clients. Headed by Al Dinwiddie, a derivatives veteran of Bankers Trust and Bank One, this unit provides full coverage to clients on all aspects of swap and option transactions.
LFP is a capitalized, special purpose entity operating with a full credit guarantee from any one of a select group of highly rated investment or commercial banks. It provides its own structuring, analytics and execution on its transactions and all transactions are backed by banking counterparties with a double “A” rating or higher. LFP will serve as principal counterparty on derivative transactions and maintain the legal, payment, operational and reputation risks associated with risk management products.
Our experienced team of professionals is qualified to provide complete swap coverage, including: structuring of strategic alternatives; trade pricing and market sensitivity analysis; analytic education to client staff; assistance and participation in board presentations and meetings; transaction execution; transaction closing and documentation; on-going management and analysis of swap and option positions.
