About Clearwater
Clearwater is a firm that specialises in purchasing illiquid assets, that are hard to price, directly from asset owners.
We are active across North America, Europe and various Offshore jurisdictions such as Cayman and the Channel Islands, with a focus on the following asset classes:
- Unpaid debts owed by companies in liquidation or bankruptcy
- Illiquid or frozen securities such as contingent value rights, delisted equities and bonds
- Partnership interests in closed-end funds, side pockets and trusts
- Unusual assets such as class action claims, insurance liquidations, tax related assets, escrow accounts and others
Clearwater’s partners have 45 years of experience in transacting in these asset classes and understand, that for many people, selling an illiquid asset or unpaid debt is a new and potentially daunting experience. As a firm we are committed to making the process as simple and as transparent as possible.
Clearwater has both the experience and the ability to wait out what are often lengthy and complex processes needed to resolve the asset-specific situation. For those holders who would rather exit such a process now and receive upfront payment for their asset, Clearwater is an ideal partner.
