    TCW’s Dylan Ross on private asset-backed finance (ABF)

    Dylan Ross, Managing Director, Portfolio Manager & Head of Asset-Backed Finance, TCW | Dylan discusses how TCW manages its ABF investments, from portfolio construction through to risk management, with a focus on ensuring client capital is protected. He outlines the key areas of investment focus for their ABF platform, explains the rationale behind those areas of focus, and explores how the platform benefits from being integrated alongside TCW's public securitised credit business. Listen to the full interview where we ask Dylan: - How do you structure and monitor ABF investments to detect fraud risk early and ensure capital is protected even in stressed scenarios? - How does the broader experience of having TCW’s ABF platform sitting alongside a public securitised credit business support the way you underwrite and manage ABF investments? - Why does TCW’s ABF platform focus on core, repeatable asset classes over highly idiosyncratic, single‑asset financings and why is that distinction important from a risk and portfolio construction standpoint? - How do you think about first‑loss protection and where it sits in the capital stack across different ABF strategies Disclaimer The views and opinions expressed in this recording are those of the individual contributors and their respective organisations at the time of recording.
