The finformant platform was founded by Alexander Rodnyansky and Florian Kronawitter, who bring complementary backgrounds in economics, policy, and financial markets.
Alexander is an economist, policy advisor, and entrepreneur. From 2020 to 2025, he served as an economic advisor to the president of Ukraine and as a member of the supervisory board of Oschadbank, Ukraine’s largest commercial bank. He is also an associate professor of economics at the University of Cambridge (on public service leave) and a Young Global Leader of the World Economic Forum.
Florian is a macro investor with over two decades of experience. From 2012 to 2021, he founded and ran the hedge fund White Square Capital, and his widely followed "Next Economy" newsletter has become a go-to resource for market participants seeking clear, actionable macroeconomic insights. He brings deep market expertise and a sharp editorial instinct to finformant’s coverage.
