It has completed transactions worth over $350 million in secondary transactions of private assets with automated settlement. Currently, Globacap administers $14 billion of private securities.

CEO’s Statement

Myles Milston, CEO of Globacap, spoke about the need for transparency in the rapidly growing private capital markets. He remarked, “Their opaque nature is holding them back from reaching their true potential. We are bringing public markets-like infrastructure to private capital markets to improve access, boost liquidity and remove administrative burdens.”
