SAN FRANCISCO, June 17, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — LendingClub Corporation (NYSE: LC), the parent company of LendingClub Bank (“LendingClub”), America’s leading digital marketplace bank, today announced that it has surpassed $3 billion in loans sold through its Structured LendingClub Loan Certificates program, which launched in April 2023.

“Our structured certificates program is gaining strong momentum among our loan investors because they recognize the value of consumer credit as an asset class, the quality of our underwriting, and our streamlined financing solutions,” said Scott Sanborn, CEO of LendingClub. “The success of this program, which is unique to us, is another indicator of our status as a provider of choice in this asset class.”

LendingClub’s structured certificates program is a two-tranche private securitization in which LendingClub retains the senior note and sells the residual certificate on a pool of loans to a marketplace investor at a predetermined price, effectively providing built-in financing.

This program, enabled by LendingClub’s unique marketplace bank model, benefits both marketplace investors and the bank. Marketplace investors earn compelling risk-adjusted levered returns with low-friction and low-cost financing on a liquid security, and LendingClub earns an attractive yield with remote credit risk.

“As the industry leader, we have a track record of substantially lower delinquencies compared to our competitive set, which is key to delivering strong returns for ourselves and our marketplace investors,” continued Sanborn. “That outperformance has resulted in existing partners renewing their commitments, and new investors coming to the LendingClub platform.”

Throughout its long history, LendingClub has offered a range of industry-first, unique product structures to expand investor access to consumer credit, broaden distribution, and improve liquidity for all investors. The structured certificates program is just the latest example of that leading innovation.

Fathom Applauds Introduction of the FRONTIER Act, the First Federal Blueprint for Independent AI Verification

Reps. Lori Trahan (D-MA-03) and Jay Obernolte (R-CA-23) introduce a bill to build a competitive marketplace of independent verifiers for frontier AI models.

WASHINGTON, July 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Fathom welcomes the introduction of the FRONTIER Act, the most complete federal framework yet for independent, third-party verification of frontier AI. The legislation is built to earn public trust as AI technology continues to accelerate. As frontier systems begin to take autonomous action in the world, the gap between what these models can do and our ability to keep them in check is widening. FRONTIER is the starting point to close that gap.

“AI governance keeps running into the same wall. The technology is hard to measure and it moves faster than any law can keep up with,” said Andrew Freedman, Co-Founder and CEO of Fathom. “Trying to write the perfect rules and freezing them in place won’t work. What will work is a competitive market of independent verifiers who are accountable for real-world outcomes and who the government can actually count on. The FRONTIER Act shows we can move fast and still get this right.”

The bill gets the fundamentals correct. It sets one public standard – the adequate mitigation of catastrophic risk – and holds both the AI companies and their independent verifiers accountable to it. FRONTIER does not freeze a single testing method into statute. Instead, it licenses competing verification organizations, allows them to sharpen their methods, and gives the government the power to revoke a license when a verifier’s work does not hold up in the field. That is how you build a system that keeps pace with the science instead of falling behind it.

Fathom thanks Reps. Trahan and Obernolte for their leadership, and for their courage in releasing a discussion draft, inviting scrutiny, and incorporating substantive improvements from across the field. One priority improvement as the bill advances: giving the government a fuller range of tools to act upstream – for pushing companies to close identified gaps in risk mitigation early, rather than only once a catastrophe is imminent. We are committed to working with these sponsors, committees of jurisdiction, and Congressional leadership to continue refining the bill in the weeks and months ahead.

About Fathom
Fathom is an independent nonprofit whose mission is to build a governance architecture that helps society navigate the transition to a world with AI by fostering trust, safety, and innovation. Fathom has developed and championed the independent verification model for AI and works with policymakers across the country to put it into practice. Learn more at http://fathom.org.
