Chief Credit Officer
What is ArK?
ArK is a precision financing company that empowers tech companies with a combination of financial solutions and know-how, utilising our artificial intelligence platform AIM. AIM uses big data and machine learning to analyse and predict companies’ current and future performance to be used as a foundation for our frontier credit decision making. ArK also shares daily updates of its analytics and insights in a borrower dashboard and through rest APIs for continuous business optimization.
ArK started in 2021 by a six-time-founder/entrepreneur, a world-class AI technology developer, and the veteran banker you always wanted. ArK is headquartered in Stockholm but our employees balance their time between being at the office and working remotely.
