Structured finance isn’t just a buzzword. It’s a modern financing method tailored to meet complex, high-value funding needs. Think of it like a personalized loan kit 🧰, where different financial instruments are combined based on borrower needs.

Example: Instead of giving a simple home loan, banks might design a custom product combining loan + insurance + asset sale strategy.
