Earlier this month, premier Lending Club investors came together to share investing stories and strategies as well as to celebrate the unveiling of our new website.  Renaud Laplanche, founder and CEO, gave a short presentation outlining Lending Club’s past achievements and a brief walk-through of the new site.

Renaud and other Lending Club team members were on hand to field questions and listen to feedback from some of our most involved investors.   Events of this kind are an essential step in ensuring Lending Club is reaching the goals of our investors and providing the services our investors need.

Ten lucky investors also got a chance to test drive Tesla   Motor’s high performance Roadster, a fully electric sports car that can hit 60 mph in right around 3.9 seconds.

Late next week, we will be unveiling a new visual identity and website design, and I am excited to give you a sneak peek.

Our new look will better express our values (trustworthy, transparent, professional yet friendly and accessible) as well as Lending Club’s commitment to innovative financial services.  Our concept is smart and simple, and our new site will reflect that.  Our goal is to make it easier and more engaging for our members to get lower rates and earn better returns.  The new site works harder to help investors better understand our concept, and the most creditworthy borrowers feel more confident in getting a loan at better terms than they would get from a traditional bank.

New Lending Club website

Our new site offers existing members the same great functionality to track your loan or investments, and will make it easier to develop new features going forward.

We hope you enjoy our new face.  Check back in a week for full access to our redesigned website!
