International SOS Calls for Innovation in Crisis Management
LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- International SOS, the leading global security and health risk management company, has unveiled a comprehensive global guide to help organisations navigate the complexities of modern crises. The paper, Building a Responsive and Effective Crisis Management Programme and accompanying webcast emphasises the importance of moving beyond traditional crisis response to adopt innovative strategies. Crises, though inherently disruptive, serve as powerful crucibles for greater resilience and innovation. They expose latent vulnerabilities, sharpen decision making and compel organisations to think about agility. Giles Hill, Global Head of Security Services at International SOS, comments:"Crises, though inherently disruptive, serve as powerful crucibles for greater resilience and innovation. They expose latent vulnerabilities, sharpen decision making and compel organisations to think about agility – an essential capability in a volatile world. They are a brutally honest appraisal of an organisation's strategy and culture. Leaders and organisations that embrace crisis as a catalyst – not just as a threat – emerge stronger, with more agile systems, clearer priorities and greater competitive advantage, ensuring their organisations not only survive but thrive in the face of adversity." Using real-world scenarios and events, the paper demonstrates how, through informed, pragmatic, and adaptable crisis management, organisations can sustain operations and flourish, and how visionary leaders can transform their organisations into resilient entities capable of facing even the most unforeseen challenges. Based on International SOS' unique 40 years of experience supporting clients and their employees through crises, the paper provides practical insights into all key aspects of best practice in dealing with today's crises – from pre-crisis planning and post-crisis demobilisation to the critical roles of perception, strategic communication, and innovation. Gautier Porot, Group Crisis Management Practice Leader at International SOS, emphasised the importance of adoption of best practices across the workforce: 'We have seen from recent escalations particularly how imperative it is to have robust crisis management and to encompass all eventualities. This paper is not just a source of information but a real call to action for all organisations, their leaders and each employee. Only by collaborating and preparing actively can crises be turned into opportunities and ensure sustainability and success.' Key Highlights of the White Paper i: Pre-crisis planning: Identifying systemic risks, organising resources, and training teams to minimise potential impacts. This includes creating ad hoc teams with specific and complementary skills and developing key documents such as crisis management policies, plans, communication strategies, and guides. Crisis Response Mobilising teams, controlling the situation, and resolving issues through rapid decision-making and clear communication. The paper outlines the importance of modular and agile response teams tailored to each crisis's specificities. Post-Crisis Demobilisation Supporting teams, analysing the new ecosystem, and adapting strategies to better cope with future crises. This involves a structured approach to problem-solving, including identifying the desired end state, breaking it down into workstreams, prioritising them, and developing strategic intent and action plans.

Palisades Closes Multi-Originator Home Equity Investment Securitization
AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Palisades Group ('Palisades'), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Chimera Investment Corporation (NYSE: CIM) and an alternative asset manager in the residential credit and real estate markets, today announced that on June 30, 2025, Solve Funding LLC had sponsored SOLVE 2025-HEC1, a $112.1 million securitization backed by home equity investment assets (HEI). This transaction marks a milestone in the evolution of the HEI sector as the securitization featured collateral aggregated from multiple originators. Solve Funding LLC is a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of investment fund vehicles that are managed by Palisades Group. Palisades Group is the reporting manager and administrator for the securitization. The securitization is rated by Morningstar DBRS. HEIs represent a rapidly growing alternative to traditional debt-based financing for homeowners. The asset class has gained increasing relevance amid record levels of U.S. homeowner equity and rising interest rates that have made traditional cash-out refinances and second liens less economic and affordable for average consumers. 'This securitization is an exciting next step in the maturation of the HEI market,' said Jack Macdowell, Chief Investment Officer of Palisades. 'Millions of U.S. homeowners are sitting on historically high levels of untapped equity, yet many face limited options for accessing that wealth without taking on new debt. HEIs offer a creative, consumer-aligned solution, providing liquidity without increasing monthly obligations. This transaction helps bring much-needed capital efficiency and scalability to the space.' The SOLVE 2025-HEC1 transaction reflects the successful unlocking of institutional capital for alternative residential credit products while also promoting financial flexibility for homeowners. 'Since the introduction of a formal rating methodology by Morningstar DBRS in July of 2023, the market has made meaningful strides — culminating in this first rated, multi-originator securitization,' said Nirvan Ghosh, Senior Portfolio Manager. 'We believe it's an important milestone for the asset class. As investors gain familiarity with the underlying credit, structures like this will be critical for improving liquidity, transparency, and ultimately, the cost of capital across the ecosystem.' Nomura Securities International, Inc. acted as sole structuring lead and joint bookrunner. Texas Capital Securities served as joint bookrunner, and Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. acted as co-manager. About Palisades Group Palisades Group, a wholly owned subsidiary of Chimera Investment Corporation (NYSE: CIM), is an alternative asset manager in the residential credit markets having managed more than $45 billion of loans, real estate, and fixed income securities since its 2012 inception. It employs a top-down asset allocation approach across residential whole loans, real estate, opportunistic credit, and fixed income markets. The Palisades Group provides clients with a control-oriented management style anchored in asset level risk management, loss mitigation, and value-add strategies. Palisades invests capital on behalf of a diverse group of institutional investors, including insurance companies, university endowments, foundations, health care systems, pensions, fund of funds, family offices, private equity and other asset management firms.

Kerrigan Advisors Represents US Auto Trust in Sale of Jaguar Land Rover Dealerships in Newport Beach, Los Angeles, Pasadena and San Jose to Sonic Automotive
LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Kerrigan Advisors, the leading sell-side advisor and thought partner to auto dealers nationwide, represented Los Angeles, California-based US Auto Trust in the sale of its Jaguar Land Rover ('JLR') dealerships in Los Angeles, Newport Beach and San Jose and Land Rover dealership in Pasadena to Sonic Automotive (NYSE: SAH), the 6 th largest automotive retailer in the United States by 2024 new unit sales. The transaction marks the most valuable JLR sale in automotive history and makes Sonic the leading JLR retailer in the US. The sale also represents Kerrigan Advisors' 401 st franchise sold nationally since 2015, cementing the firm's position as the leading sell-side advisor to higher value dealerships. US Auto Trust's JLR platform represents some of the highest volume JLR franchises ever sold in the US. Land Rover Los Angeles ranked #1 in California and #5 in the US and serves the affluent Beverly Hills market. Jaguar Land Rover Newport Beach is one of the top franchises in California and ranked #2 in the US and Jaguar Land Rover San Jose is the highest volume Jaguar Land Rover dealership in Northern California. The group will retain ownership of its Aston Martin, Cadillac and Lotus dealerships in Southern California after the sale. 'Kerrigan Advisors played an instrumental role in making the sale happen,' said Matt Kaiser, Chief of Staff for US Auto Trust. 'The firm's expertise was invaluable in identifying Sonic as the ideal buyer for our valuable JLR platform. We've greatly valued our partnership with JLR and are proud of the transformation we've achieved, elevating these dealerships from among the brand's lowest NPS performers to some of the highest ranked in both customer service and sales. As an ultra-premium retail group with a deep commitment to the customer experience, we accomplished our objectives and believe the time was right to redirect our focus toward future luxury acquisitions. We remain dedicated to serving the Southern California luxury market through our other Aston Martin, Cadillac, and Lotus franchises.' 'The US Auto Trust-Sonic transaction demonstrates the strong demand for premium dealership assets in top California auto retail markets like Beverly Hills, Newport Beach, Pasadena and San Jose. We were honored to represent US Auto Trust in this historic sale and congratulate Sonic on this marquee acquisition,' said Ryan Kerrigan, Managing Director of Kerrigan Advisors. 'We have appreciated being a thought partner to US Auto Trust as they entered the auto retail industry and, when the time was right, assisting the group in selling their lucrative JLR platform. Congratulations to US Auto Trust and Sonic on this important transaction.' Land Rover, known for its iconic SUV-only line up, has one of the most coveted dealer networks in the United States with just 202 franchises nationwide. The dealerships in this sale are known for their prime real estate and strategic locations in some of the most affluent regions in the US, benefiting from high population density per franchise and industry-leading customer loyalty scores. California is the nation's largest auto retail market, generating over $150 billion in dealership revenue in 2024 – accounting for 12% of the US market and ranking second in average revenue per dealership. Each region represented in the sale underscores a key pillar of California's luxury auto market: affluent, brand-loyal consumers; high vehicle density; and strong, stable economic fundamentals. Los Angeles stands as the second-largest economy in the country, while Orange County continues to grow as a highly affluent region, with GDP rising approximately 58% from 2010 to 2023. Pasadena is an award-winning city known for its exceptional quality of life and high net worth population. Lastly, San Jose anchors a powerhouse economy in Silicon Valley fueled by a robust job market and many of the nation's most prominent companies. 'This transaction highlights that the combination of high volume, ideal auto retail location, and top luxury franchises creates strong buyer demand. JLR's high-margin product lineup and robust profitability further increased the appeal of US Auto Trust's JLR platform in California,' said Erin Kerrigan, Managing Director of Kerrigan Advisors. 'We were honored to represent US Auto Trust and work with their team to ensure this highly valuable multi-franchise transaction ran smoothly and came to a successful close.'
