Managing new issue structuring has traditionally been a complex, manual process—requiring extensive spreadsheets, repeated data entry, and time-consuming scenario planning. Milwaukee anticipates that DebtBook’s Sizing tool will help streamline these processes, making it easier to evaluate financing options and assess their impact on outstanding debt.

DebtBook’s Sizing tool gives issuers the keys to financial structuring, allowing treasury teams to structure, compare, and analyze financing options to see the potential impact of new money issues or fixed-rate loans on their outstanding debt portfolio. With Sizing, teams can structure new money issues, incorporate accurate yield curves via live pricing data from MBIS, and turn scenarios into verified debt issuances—all within DebtBook’s centralized platform.

With in-house access to powerful structuring capabilities that most organizations have not historically had, Milwaukee sees the potential of leveraging DebtBook to generate multiple financing scenarios in minutes. Instead of relying on cumbersome spreadsheets or external advisors for every scenario request, the ability to compare and refine structures in real-time could allow their team to react faster and explore more possibilities.
