New York, NY – January 22, 2015 - Principia Partners, a leading solution provider for derivatives market participants and structured finance investors, today announced that it will now offer a new service for use in performing DFAST (Dodd-Frank Act Stress Testing) valuations for baseline, adverse, and severely adverse scenarios.

The new service allows subscribers to upload their portfolio and revalue for each scenario and each of the nine reporting quarters required by DFAST.

Provision of these scenarios allows clients to leverage Principia’s expertise in structured product valuations and more quickly and easily perform their DFAST and publish their results.

“We are very pleased to be able to offer this new service to all the entities required to comply with DFAST reporting requirements. We feel we are in a unique position to help entities make light work of a heavy-duty reporting requirement and we look forward to providing this service to existing and new customers alike” said Theresa Adams, President and CEO of Principia.
