John Doherty
John 'Jack' Doherty is the Co-Founder and CEO of Forest Park Group, a San Mateo-based fintech building LoanOS - a permissioned blockchain settlement platform targeting the $1 trillion-plus syndicated loan market. With a Mathematical Economics degree from the University of Pennsylvania and stints in CLO credit research at Pretium Partners, he founded Forest Park in April 2019 to attack one of Wall Street's most persistent inefficiencies: syndicated loan settlement times averaging 23 days in North America and 6+ weeks in Europe. The company raised a $1.2M seed round in 2021 from EvoNexus and Advanced Blockchain AG, and its technology promises to compress settlement from T+21 to T+1, potentially increasing syndicate sizes by 25% and cutting credit costs by 4%.
