 “Credit markets, particularly private credit, have boomed over the past few decades.

Synnax CEO Robert Alcorn says Froehlich’s expertise in credit markets will help the firm to work towards its mission of providing a “more trustless and privacy-preserving framework for institutional credit assessment.”
