- What is Indaxy?
- Indaxy is Capital Appraisal's proprietary technology infrastructure: an ecosystem of three platforms (Asset Studio, the Valuers App and the Companies App) that digitises, automates and scales the complete industrial asset valuation cycle. Designed from the outset for RICS-regulated European banking, it automates the valuation of the collateral and keeps the capital consumption live.
- How many asset typologies does Indaxy cover?
- Indaxy processes more than 500 different asset typologies, with a base of more than 1M+ real data points from the industrial secondary market. It covers machinery, production lines, industrial vehicles, logistics warehouses, intangible assets and stock.
- Who develops the technology and where does the data come from?
- All the software is built and maintained by a dedicated in-house team, with no third-party dependencies. The market data is sourced automatically from three channels — industrial auctions, closed transactions and valuations by our own experts — and is fed and reviewed periodically to keep the freshness and traceability required by the RICS Red Book.
- Which platforms does Indaxy include?
- Three integrated platforms: Asset Studio (web platform for banks, funds and insurers — portfolio management, automated valuation and capital consumption on collateral), the Valuers App (mobile app for on-site technical capture with automatic reading of nameplates and structured voice dictation) and the Companies App (portal for industrial companies — inventory self-management and value updates).
- Does Indaxy replace the human valuer?
- No. Indaxy is a layer that accelerates the valuer's work, not a replacement for it. Automated valuation proposes and the RICS valuer signs. RICS Red Book methodological traceability requires a qualified valuer to review, adjust and endorse every figure before the report is issued. Indaxy cuts the process time by 90%, not the professional responsibility.
- Can Indaxy project an asset's value several years ahead?
- Yes. Using the asset's data (typology, age, usage, maintenance and secondary-market comparables) Indaxy generates the expected depreciation curve up to five years ahead. The projection lets corporate banks plan capital consumption and future provisions on the collateral, insurers size cover capital at every renewal, and funds model residual asset value in their investment thesis. It is delivered as an annual figure and a downloadable curve; the RICS valuer reviews it before signing.
- How does Indaxy fit with regulatory capital consumption?
- Capital consumption on collateralised exposures depends, among other factors, on the freshness, traceability and technical validity of the collateral value. Indaxy automates the continuous update of the value of the industrial assets backing financing transactions, keeps the LTV live and delivers reports signed under RICS — the format European supervisors and regulated banking expect to see in the file documentation.
- How does Indaxy work with the client's systems?
- Asset Studio is a self-contained web interface for portfolio management, metric visualisation and financial analysis of the collateral — it is not an ERP nor does it integrate technically via API with the banking core. Client data (portfolio, valuations, signed reports, history) is managed inside Indaxy and delivered in open exportable formats (PDF/A for reports, spreadsheets and CSV for tabular data) that the Risk team or the finance team can incorporate into their workflows. When a client needs a specific connector to its internal stack, the Indaxy custom development team builds the piece case by case.
- What security applies to client data in Indaxy?
- Cloud hosting in European regions. Modern encryption for the channel and persisted data. Role-based access with reinforced authentication for administrative profiles. Auditable records of every operation. Architecture aligned with ISO/IEC 27001 and GDPR-compliant by design. Periodic external security audits and independent pentesting of the platform. Reciprocal NDA on every integration. Client data is not shared with third parties and is not used to feed the comparables base without express authorisation.
- How is the evidence shown to the bank's Technology Risk team?
- During the integration phase we hand the counterparty's Technology Risk team formal documentation: security architecture, ISO/IEC 27001 controls matrix, the most recent external audit summaries, continuity plan and results of the latest independent pentesting. We sign a reciprocal NDA and accept the bank's own DDQ questionnaires. The goal is for the Risk team to close its supplier due diligence with no extra steps.
- How much does access to Indaxy cost?
- The Valuers App and the Companies App can be used in service mode (included in the report price). Asset Studio is contracted as a licence for corporate banking, funds and insurers with recurring volume — the pricing model depends on the number of assets under management and the technical integration with the client.
