CrossLend operates a digital end-to-end platform for loan portfolio transactions, including data and analysis tools, securitisation as a service and a marketplace connecting originators and institutional investors. Working closely with CrossLend’s executive management, Frank will help develop further partnerships in key markets to meet the fast-growing demand from institutional investors for private debt exposure.

With more than 20 years of international experience in finance, most recently as Managing Director at J.P. Morgan and advisor to Cheyne Capital, Frank brings profound expertise to CrossLend.
