Today, I’m excited to share that Oasive is out of stealth and backed by Y Combinator.
Oasive helps bond investors find better bonds to buy. We’re launching with Macro & Rates Research and our Agency MBS Platform, bringing research, proprietary quantitative models and AI analysts into one place.
The platform I wanted on the desk
Before building Oasive, I managed a $17B mortgage-backed securities (MBS) and asset-backed securities (ABS) portfolio at Google Treasury and worked as a quant on Wells Fargo’s $350B agency MBS portfolio.
Finding a trade that looks attractive is just the start. Is it really cheap? What happens if rates move or homeowners repay their mortgages faster? Does it make sense for the portfolio?
I built Oasive to help answer those questions in minutes, so you can spend more time finding opportunities and deciding which trades are worth putting on.
What you can do today
Macro & Rates Research: Understand what’s moving markets, ask follow-up questions and explore the data behind the answers. Use our Treasury valuation models to find rich and cheap areas of the yield curve and evaluate curve trades and butterflies.
Agency MBS Platform: Compare pools, dig into collateral and prepayments, and test trade ideas with our proprietary models. Run scenarios across your portfolio to see how changes in rates and prepayments affect value and risk.
This is the beginning
Oasive is already used across 15 institutional desks, including global banks, asset managers with over $100B in assets under management, and Fortune 500 treasury teams. Thank you to everyone who has tested the platform, challenged us and helped shape what we’re launching today.
We’re building for the wider fixed income market. Municipal securities, ABS and corporates are next.
