Asset-Based Finance Reporter

About 9fin 9fin is the AI platform powering global debt markets — the world’s largest asset class at over $145 trillion.

Today, 9fin powers teams at 300+ blue-chip institutions worldwide, including global banks, asset managers, private equity firms, law firms, and advisors. The business is scaling at exceptional speed, with rapid expansion in the US and best-in-class retention driven by deep workflow adoption. We’re at a defining inflection point. With proven product-market fit and strong, global market pull, 9fin is accelerating toward becoming the category-defining platform for debt markets worldwide.

Asset-based finance is the hottest thing in private credit, and touches on multiple areas of markets, including banks, mortgages, commercial real estate, corporate lending, fund finance, buy-now-pay later and more, so that no day is the same. The public markets are the tip of the iceberg and there’s always a new stone to turn over in this innovative and complex field. You could be covering the collapse of firms like Tricolor and First Brands, innovative startups barely a year old rolling out the clean energy transition, capital to fuel the next generation of AI models or lending against the buildings you see each day. 9fin has a great track record of building out new products, and asset-based finance is next, giving a great canvas for the right journalist to make their mark. There’s space to innovate, shape a beat and make it your own, with the support to guide you as you get up to speed.
