How to Price a Claim
For too long, the pricing of bankruptcy claims has been a black box. Here are some insights to consider when evaluating any bankruptcy claim.
Claim pricing is not one-size-fits-all
Just like any other market, claims trade based on the common price at which a seller is willing to sell and a buyer is willing to buy. As they say, if both parties come away from a deal feeling like they could have done better, they probably both did OK.
The claims trading market has historically been opaque and amorphous, with information asymmetries that result in large pricing spreads and fewer trades. When more buyers and sellers come together in a single place, like on the Xclaim Marketplace, parties can have greater confidence that when they do find a common price, it's a fair one.
