1.3 STATEMENT OF WORK

Private Equity and Private Credit (PEPC) Data Subscription Services

1.0 BACKGROUND

The Department of Treasury, Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) mission is to ensure national banks and federal savings associations operate in a safe and sound manner, provide fair access to financial services, treat customers fairly, and comply with applicable laws and regulations. Within OCC the mission is executed through a number of departments and offices including office of Chief National Bank Examiner (“CNBE”) tasked with promoting a safe, sound, and fair banking system by providing policy guidance, analyzing risks, and supporting supervisory activities and the office of Large and Global Financial Institutions (LGFI) tasked with ensuring these institutions operate in a safe and sound manner, provide fair access to financial services, treat customers fairly, and comply with applicable laws and regulations.

The Financial Stability Oversight Council (“FSOC”), of which OCC is a member, found in its latest Annual Report private credit and private equity markets have grown significantly, increasing its interconnection with banks. The opacity of private equity and private credit markets makes it difficult to evaluate risk management practices and interconnectivity build-up.

To effectively assess this opaque market and quantify regulated banks’ direct and indirect exposures, OCC requires granular data within the private asset landscape.

2.0 OBJECTIVES

This requirement to procure Private Equity and Private Credit (PE&PC) data is driven by the banks’ increasing exposures to PE&PC and the increasing competition banks face from Non-

Depository Financial Institutions (NDFIs) in general. The procurement of the PE&PC data is to achieve the following objectives:

• To enhance the agency’s understanding of the NDFIs’ direct and indirect involvement in the traditional commercial lending.

• To quantify banks’ direct and indirect exposures to private equity, private credit including collateralized loan obligations (CLOs), and business development companies

(BDCs).

• To identify the emerging risks among NDFIs that have existing credit lines with the OCC supervised large banks.

• To improve the agency’s understanding of valuation discrepancies among portfolio companies.

• To assess the potential systemic risk implications of private equity and private credit for the banking system.

3.0 SCOPE OF SERVICES

The scope of this SOW is for the provision of data regarding private equity and private credit and any services necessary for OCC to retrieve this data, including data rights as stated in this SOW.

4.0 PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENTS

4.1 Required Licenses

a) Five (5) users licenses with the ability to simultaneously retrieve and download data for

OCC use and analysis. Named users can be replaced as necessary due to staff turnover, changes in users’ job functions, or lack of product usage.

b) Option (if exercised): Up to a maximum of twelve (12) users licenses with access to content written reports with limited download capability to simultaneously access the data. Named users can be replaced as necessary due to staff turnover, changes in users’ job functions, or lack of product usage.

4.2 Data Requirements

1) Coverage of Private Markets:

The dataset must cover the following information, organized into linkable tables to enable efficient data retrieval and integration. All minimum counts specified below include both historical and active entities. The OCC’s requirements for minimum coverage are meant to mitigate survivorship bias in our analysis. We do not intend to consume the vendor’s entire database, but rather to maintain the flexibility to retrieve specific segments on demand as our projects evolve.

a) Must provide data fields on private equity funds, private credit funds, collateralized loan obligations, business development companies, portfolio companies including their financial information, deals, limited partners, general partners, and other investors including lenders.

b) Non-public company-specific details required, including (estimated) revenue and industry classifications

c) Must provide deal-level information, including investor/lender names, pre-money valuation, post-money valuation

d) Fund-level tracking and GP-LP relationships required

e) Must have coverage of more than 500,000 portfolio companies across the vendor’s full database, including both fund-backed and non-fund-backed companies.

f) The total number of investors must exceed 40,000.

g) Must have coverage for over 150,000 funds

h) Must have coverage for over 600,000 deals

i) Must have usable identifiers for portfolio companies, funds, investors

j) Must have information on portfolio holdings of CLOs and BDCs

k) Must have historical coverage since 2014

l) API must provide at least 20,000 data calls annually.

m) Option (if exercised): OCC may exercise during the Base Year and all Option Years up to an additional 20,000 data calls per period at any time during the period of performance.

2) Update Frequency:

a) Historical data may be revised. Major revisions of the historical data should be communicated to the users.

b) Data fields are updated daily when new information becomes available.

3) Delivery Method and Data Format:

Provide API or bulk download functionality for structured data access.

a) In the event Snowflake is selected to facilitate data transfer, all Snowflake hosting fees for the required data shall be paid by the Licensor directly to its third-party Snowflake provider. To the extent the OCC performs data manipulation, analysis, etc. it may do so using its own Snowflake platform, and the OCC shall pay all fees associated with its own

Snowflake platform directly to its third-party Snowflake provider. The third-party platform provider (and/or Snowflake, Inc.) is not an interested party or third-party beneficiary to this contract.

b) The OCC’s preference is an enterprise-wide delivery model not limited by named users or seat counts, as our stakeholder-driven demand may fluctuate significantly. API access and usage capacity should be flexibly allocated among authorized users based on evolving business needs.

4) Documentation:

a) The vendor must have data documentation that clearly defines data fields and structures.

b) The vendor must provide timely customer service (response within 48 hours), including clarifying the data definitions and investigating data anomalies.

c) The vendor must be able to provide licensed user usage statistics monthly report (at a minimum date of last usage) as well as API call balance if API calls are capped.

5) Data Usage:

a) The vendor-supplied data covering private equity and private credit markets will be used by analysts and economists to assess supervised institutions' direct and indirect exposures to (leveraged) lending activities. The data will support ongoing supervisory monitoring, horizontal reviews, and institution-specific risk assessments.

b) Analysts and economists will use the data to identify and trace credit and ownership exposures from limited partner commitments through fund structures to underlying portfolio companies. This includes linking vendor-supplied entity names — such as fund names, limited partners, and portfolio companies to our internal datasets to map exposure concentrations across supervised institutions.

c) Deal-level valuation data, including pre-money and post-money valuations, entry multiples, and leverage terms, will be used to monitor changes in collateral quality and equity cushion underlying supervised institutions' exposures over time.

d) Portfolio company-level financial and operational data will be used to support credit risk assessment at the borrower level, supplementing fund-level performance data with company-specific metrics such as revenue and sector classification.

e) The data will also be used to identify trends in growing credit concentrations among supervised institutions, including emerging exposures in small and mid-market transactions that may not be visible through public sources or regulatory filings alone. This includes monitoring supervised institutions' exposures to thematic investment areas such as AI infrastructure, where rapid capital deployment through private equity and private credit channels may give rise to concentrated or correlated risk positions.

f) Only the five (5) licensed users with the ability to download data for OCC will use the aggregate data and provide analysis of which only insubstantial data summary will be used and shared with audiences external to the OCC.

g) Analyses incorporating the vendor’s data and other related sources are intended for various

CNBE stakeholders and the National Risk Committee.

5.0 DELIVERABLES

Within seven days after contract award, the selected vendor must deliver the data or provide access to it, depending on the specified delivery method:

a) If API method is used, the selected vendor must provide the API documentation, authentication credentials

b) If direct data feed method is used, the selected vendor must provide file paths, access credentials, and technical documentation on accessing the data.

c) If the vendor delivers the data through Snowflake, account locators and other relevant information necessary to access the data must be provided.

d) Vendors should provide usage reporting and portal access that enables us to monitor consumption across the OCC users. Ideally, the OCC would have access to an admin module in which license usage could be monitored. The admin user(s) would not count against the license count. The portal should display last login timestamps for each user account and provide real-time visibility into API call consumption relative to the purchased package limits.

e) If an admin user account is available, the OCC admin account will have the ability to set usage alerts, implement quotas per user, and receive notifications when approaching package thresholds, enabling the admin user(s) to proactively ration usage or explore additional API call options.

5.1 Third-Party Data Identification. Explicit identification of third-party data embedded with the procured data subject to third-party licensing agreements with accompanying licensing terms.

• If the selected vendor uses any third-party identification, such as D.U.M.S, CUSIPs, CIKs, EINs, or LEIs, OCC will be allowed to use these third-party identifiers to link to the agency’s internal datasets with additional costs or licensing fees.

6.0 PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT

6.1 Contractor Point of Contact. The Contractor must provide a point of contact for this contract to interface with the OCC Point of Contact (POC). The contractor must keep OCC notified as to who this point of contact is and how to reach him/her. The Contractor must provide timely (within 7 calendar days of personnel change) notification OCC when/if this point of contact changes (and provide the new name and contact information) to ensure OCC always has a current point of contact.

7.0 PLACE OF PERFORMANCE

The Contractor must perform contract activities at its own facilities. No work shall be performed at the OCC, except the Contractor may provide training at the OCC’s headquarters in Washington, DC at mutually agreed upon times. OCC reserves the right to unilaterally require the Contractor to provide a virtual demonstration of the product/services once per year for the purposes of initial capabilities familiarity for new users at OCC. The size of the audience may be up to 50 people.

The virtual venue must be provided by the Contractor (i.e., the virtual conference must be set up and hosted by the Contractor). This demonstration may be given more frequently if agreed upon mutually by both OCC and the Contractor in writing (e-mail meets this requirement).
