  "abstract": "We establish a new functional relation for the probability density function of the exponential functional of a L\\'evy process, which allows to significantly simplify the techniques commonly used in the study of these random variables and hence provide quick proofs of known results, derive new results, as well as sharpening known estimates for the distribution. We apply this formula to provide another look to the Wiener-Hopf type factorisation for exponential functionals obtained in a series of papers by Pardo, Patie and Savov, derive new identities in law, and to describe the behaviour of the tail distribution at infinity and of the distribution at zero in a rather large set of situations.",
