- Description
- The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) is seeking sources for review and advisory services regarding one or more asset and transaction valuation and expense estimation models that are used in FDIC's resolutions and receiverships roles. This sources sought is for planning purposes only and shall not be construed as a Request for Proposal or as an obligation on the part of the FDIC to acquire any products or services; submitting a response does not ensure your firm will be solicited on any resulting Request for Proposal. The FDIC does not intend to award a contract on the basis of this request or otherwise pay for the information requested. Submission of a response to this request is entirely voluntary. The voluntary submission of a response to this request shall not obligate the FDIC to pay or entitle the submitter of information to claim any direct or indirect costs or charges or any other remuneration whatsoever. The FDIC strongly encourages the participation of minority-owned and women-owned businesses in all the business and contracting activities of the FDIC. The FDIC is currently exploring market capabilities for providing services to advise and assist it regarding one or more asset and transaction valuation and expense estimation models. As a general background, in its role as receiver of failed insured depository institutions, the FDIC is charged with estimating the costs of resolutions and the value of banks and bank assets. The results of these estimates inform certain corporate decisions and affect corporate financial reporting. The FDIC develops these cost and value estimates from a variety of sources, including public reports, data from the bank supervision processes, historic corporate data, and asset valuation reports prepared by third parties. Asset values and transaction structures are analyzed using a variety of qualitative methods to derive value and cost estimates under a variety of resolution transactions, such as FDIC-administered liquidations, purchase and assumption transactions with open institutions, and other methods. The FDIC wishes to conduct an evaluation of these models that includes the following: • evaluation of the data sources and assumptions relied upon by the models; • review of the models' logic, construction, and quantitative methods that yields an understanding of the stability, sensitivity, and limitations of the subject model; • analysis of model performance over a recent period of operation, including a statistical analysis of generated estimates versus observed experience; • identification or development of alternative approaches to producing the estimates generated by current models or otherwise providing quantitative support to the decisions that presently rely on existing models; and • recommendations for modifications to existing models. As the current models have been reviewed by internal and external reviewers, an early component of the selected contractor's work will be a survey of the existing reviews and development of a project plan that avoids duplication of recent, relevant review work. Responses should focus on your firm's capabilities to provide services to advise and assist the FDIC regarding its asset and transaction valuation and expense estimation models. Please provide the following: 1. A statement detailing your expertise in evaluations of the type listed above, including a description of your organization's and key employees' qualifications in the following areas (noting that experience and expertise in all areas is not necessarily for contractor qualification): a. financial and economic modeling, model review, and validation (including experience in providing independent model review and evaluations for third parties); b. bank asset valuation, to include valuation of performing and nonperforming debt and bank owned real estate; c. bank franchise valuation; d. bank transaction due diligence and mergers and acquisitions advisory services; e. transaction price evaluation, to include fairness opinions and other standard analytic products; and f. statistical analysis of financial and economic data. 2. A description of your fee structures and pricing mechanisms for all services. 3. A list of representative clients. 4. A point of contact: Name Company Name & Address Phone number Email address Please do not exceed ten pages; however, you may submit any supplemental marketing literature.
