About Capital Finance Bureau
Research and reporting on capital markets, credit and real estate finance.
Capital Finance Bureau publishes research and analysis on how money moves through the credit markets: Treasury yields and the policy rate, private credit and debt funds, and the lending that finances commercial real estate.
Our readers are lenders, fund managers, investors, brokers and the analysts who advise them. We aim to explain not just what happened, but what it means for the cost and availability of credit.
What we publish
- Analysis: reporting on market and policy developments, with our interpretation clearly labeled.
- Research Notes: in-depth pieces on a single question facing lenders and investors.
- Data Briefs: summaries of published data, with notes on what the numbers show.
- Explainers and Guides: reference material on how markets and instruments work.
How we work
Every piece links to its primary sources, such as Federal Reserve statements, U.S. Treasury data, regulatory filings and named research reports. Our process, including how we use technology in research and drafting, is described in our editorial standards.
Ownership
Capital Finance Bureau is privately owned. If we ever publish content that involves a company connected to our owners, we will say so clearly in that piece. See our disclosures.
