LendingClub (LC) and OnDeck’s (ONDK) stellar December IPOs will likely set the stage for other consumer and small business lending
platforms to go public in 2015. Student loan-focused peer-to-peer lender SoFi and OnDeck competitor CAN Capital are both weighing an IPO. Private investors have also poured capital into other fintech startups like
mobile payment providers (e.g. Square) and consumer finance websites (e.g. Credit Karma).
