Made Easy with pasVal

New York, NY – February 3, 2016 - Principia Partners, a leading solution provider for derivative and structured finance operations, today announced the launch of its GASB 53 service to greatly reduce the efforts state and local governments expend complying with this standard.

Backed by Principia’s 20-year expertise with derivative valuations and hedge accounting, they can also count on the service to catch the kind of subtleties that can really make a difference in valuations and testing effectiveness.

“Making compliance easier for our clients really matters to us.” stated Theresa L. Adams, Principia’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “With our GASB 53 service we take the pain out of dealing with this complicated set of government reporting requirements.
