In 2012, Renaud Laplanche, founder and CEO of Lending Club, joined me on the Tradestreaming Podcast.

So much has happened in the peer to peer lending space since then (including the fact that they no longer call it “peer to peer”): Lending Club just surpassed $4 billion in underwritings, rolled out business loans in addition to personal, and filed for IPO.

Chief Marketing Officer, Scott Sanborn joins me, Zack Miller, on the Tradestreaming Podcast to discuss why investors are flocking to Lending Club and where his business will go in the near future.
