Stop Flying Blind. Build a Real Bank Partner Pipeline.

Let's be blunt. Your origination platform is a work of art—a data-driven machine built for efficient underwriting. But when it comes to the critical function of moving those assets, your secondary market strategy is a mess. You're trying to manage whole loan sales with a clumsy mix of old contact lists and lukewarm intros, hindering your ability to secure reliable liquidity solutions.

This inefficiency is a direct hit to your bottom line. It slows your capital velocity, increases your cost of capital, and prevents you from systematically finding the best-fit loan portfolio buyers. You’ve built a sophisticated lending engine but lack a data-driven strategy for the most crucial part: the sale.

I saw this disconnect, and I did what I always do: I built the machine to fix it. It’s called BankWatch Pro, and its targeting system is the Credit Box Search. This is the loan portfolio marketplace search tool you wish you had.

The Engine: More Than Just a Filter

The Credit Box isn't a simple filter. It’s a purpose-built engine designed to screen the entire universe of U.S. banks and pinpoint ideal partners for forward flow agreements and bulk sales. It turns a manual, frustrating process into a 90-second precision strike.

Let's say your platform originates high-quality auto loans and you need to find consistent bank credit buyers. Here’s how you stop flying blind and start building a real pipeline for your performing loans:

Step 1: Define Your Ideal Partner's Balance Sheet.

You need partners with the capacity to buy, but who aren't so large they are a direct competitor. Using the Asset Range sliders, you can target regional and community banks—for example, between $500M and $20B in assets. This immediately focuses your search on the most likely whole loan buyers.

Step 2: Screen for Financial Health and an Appetite to Buy.

You can't sell assets to a bank that's struggling. Your goal is balance sheet optimization, and you need a partner who sees your assets as a strategic advantage. Under the Performance tab, you set your non-negotiables:

• Min Tier 1 Capital Ratio: 10% — Filters well-capitalized partners ready for asset acquisition.
• Min ROA: 0.75% — Ensures they are profitable and actively seeking yield.
• Max Efficiency Ratio: 70% — Targets well-run institutions, a key counterparty indicator.

You are now exclusively targeting healthy banks on offense, looking to deploy capital and diversify their loan portfolio.

Step 3: Pinpoint the Strategic Need (The Kill Shot).

This is where the Credit Box becomes your weapon for fintech-bank partnerships. Your portfolio is auto loans. Who is the most motivated buyer? A bank that is underweight in auto loans and needs to diversify. You scroll down to the Loan Portfolio section and set Primary Loan Type to "Commercial Real Estate" or "Agricultural."

You’ve just built a search that asks a sophisticated question: "Show me every well-capitalized U.S. bank in my target asset range that is over-concentrated in CRE and needs high-yielding auto loans for diversification."

The Result: A Targeted Pipeline for Whole Loan Sales

You click “Find Matches.” The system returns a clean, actionable list of ideal partners. Your pitch transforms from generic to strategic:

"I see you're running a strong, profitable bank with a solid capital base. My firm originates a high-quality auto loan portfolio that would be an excellent diversifier for your CRE concentration. Are you looking to partner with a fintech lender to add high-yielding consumer assets to your book this quarter?"

You’ve gone from salesperson to capital markets strategist. The market demands precision, not guesswork. The Credit Box in BankWatch Pro is built to connect innovative lenders with institutional capital.
