Compute Collateral
Coverage

Three places the risk actually sits

The sector is financed through three quite different structures, and the same collateral behaves differently in each. We cover all three because the risk moves between them.

Equipment

Equipment-level collateral

GPU-secured facilities, sale-leasebacks, vendor-financed structures. Perfection, custody, repossession logistics, and what a chip fetches in a forced sale.
