Hex Trust Partners with Synnax to Transform Counterparty Risk Assessment

Hex Trust, a leading provider of digital asset custody, staking and markets services has announced a strategic partnership with Synnax, a pioneering decentralised credit intelligence platform. This collaboration marks a significant step forward in enhancing risk management strategies within the digital asset industry. Hex Trust will leverage Synnax’s predictive Credit Intelligence tools to assess and manage counterparty risk with greater precision and foresight.

Why This Partnership Matters

In the rapidly evolving digital asset landscape, counterparty risk remains a critical concern for institutional investors and custodians. Traditional credit assessments often fall short in capturing the dynamic and complex risk profiles of digital asset counterparties. That’s where Synnax comes in.

By integrating Synnax’s predictive Credit Intelligence, Hex Trust will gain access to real-time, forward-looking insights that enhance their ability to assess creditworthiness and mitigate counterparty risk. Synnax’s tools offer a powerful alternative to traditional credit ratings, combining on-chain and off-chain data with decentralized machine learning models to deliver accurate and adaptive risk assessments.

How Synnax Will Support Hex Trust

1. Real-Time Credit Signals

Hex Trust will utilize Synnax’s Credit Signals to continuously monitor and assess the financial health of counterparties. These forward-looking metrics provide immediate insights into potential risks, empowering Hex Trust to make faster, data-driven decisions.

2. Predictive Risk Assessment with R-Score

Synnax’s R-Score offers a quantitative measure of the likelihood that an entity will fulfill its debt obligations within the next 18 months. This predictive score equips Hex Trust with the ability to proactively manage exposure to high-risk counterparties.

3. Enhanced Counterparty Due Diligence

Synnax’s Credit Intelligence platform will bolster Hex Trust’s due diligence process, enabling more comprehensive and dynamic evaluations of digital asset projects, service providers, and institutional partners.

Driving Trust and Security in Digital Finance

This partnership underscores Hex Trust’s commitment to strengthening its risk management framework and fostering trust within the digital asset ecosystem. As the industry continues to grow and institutional adoption accelerates, advanced credit assessment tools like Synnax’s predictive models are essential for navigating market volatility and counterparty risks.

For Synnax, this collaboration is a pivotal step toward redefining how credit intelligence supports the evolving needs of digital finance. By partnering with industry leaders like Hex Trust, Synnax continues to bridge the gap between traditional credit assessment models and the future of decentralized finance.
