1.LendingClubwillissue$5.3billioninnewloans
Lendingclub将发行53亿美元新贷款
WithLendingClubnolongerprovidingtimelyupdatesontheirloanbookwewillnotknowexactlyhowmuchtheyissuedin2014forquitesometime.ButIamconfidentthatmy$5.3billionnumberwasoverlyaggressive.Wedoknowthatinthefirstninemonthsof2014LendingClubissued$2.96billioninnewloans.So,eveniftheyhaveabreakoutfourthquarterIexpecttheywillbeunder$4.5billionintotaloriginationsfor2014.
由于Lendingclub不再对其贷款账簿进行阶段性更新,因此我们无法了解该公司在2014年一段时期内的具体放贷金额。但53亿美元的这一预估还是过度乐观。众所周知,在2014年的前9个月,Lending Club实现了29.6亿美元的新贷款。因此,即使他们在第四季度成交量有所突破,我预估他们2014年的成交额将不超过45亿美元。
2.Prosperwillissue$1.1billioninnewloans
Prosper将发行11亿美元新贷款
TheoppositehappenedonmyProsperprediction.Prosper’sgrowthwasfarmorethanI,oranyoneelseforthatmatter,expected.Theyendedtheyearwith$1.6billioninnewloansissuedupfromjust$357millionthepreviousyear.
事实证明,我对于Prosper的预测恰恰相反。Prosper的发展远远超过包括我在内的任何人的预期。相比于前一年3.57亿美元的成交额,去年他们以16亿美元的放贷量收官。
3.GooglelaunchesajointventurewithLendingClubaroundGoogleWallet
谷歌将与Lending Club就谷歌钱包建立合资企业
Iwascompletelywrongonthisone.WhiletheofficialwordisthatGoogleandLendingClubare“workingtogether”todevelopsomethingnotimetablehasbeensetandwemayseenothinghereforquietsometime.
我对此判断失误。尽管官方消息称谷歌和Lending Club将共同合作开发某些项目,但此后动静全无。
4.Mobilebecomeswidespreadforbothonlineconsumerandbusinesslending
手机在网购群体和企业贷款中被广泛传播。
WhileIthinkmobileuseisincreasing,particularlyontheborrowerside,tosayithasbecomewidespreadtodayisprobablyanoverstatement.RonSuber,thepresidentofProsper,talkedoftenlastyearabouttheimportanceofamobilestrategyforlendingplatformsbutwestillhaven’treachedaturningpointhereyet.
尽管今天说来或许有些夸张,但我仍认为手机的使用在不断推广,尤其是对于贷款方。Prosper董事长RonSuber去年曾谈论过手机策略对于借贷平台的重要性,但这里仍未出现转折点。
5.ProsperwillbeprofitablebyQ32014
Prosper将于2014年第三季度实现盈利
IamhappytoreportthatIwasrightonthisone.Prosperturnedprofitableinthethirdquarterlastyear.
很高兴我的这一判断是正确无误的。Prosper在去年第三季度实现盈利。
IalsopredictedthatLendingClubwouldhaveasuccessfulIPOin2014althoughIexpecteditwasgoingtohappeninthefirsthalfoftheyear.ButgiventhepublicintentionsofLendingClubitwasabitofastretchtocalltheLendingClubIPOanactualprediction.
此外,我曾预测Lending Club或将在2014年成功上市,尽管时间为2014年上半年。但对于公众而言,把LendingClub上市称之为实际预测未免略有夸张。
