BLender also differentiates itself through DirectMatch, its portfolio creator, and Re-BLend, a secondary trading market within the company. Prosper and LendingClub allow lenders to invest in a variety of loans in small increments to diversify and reduce risk. BLender optimizes this process with its matching algorithm that automatically spreads lenders’ money over a wide variety of loans. With Re-BLend, lenders can buy and sell loans and portfolios among themselves, a service that is not provided by LendingClub and outsourced by Prosper.
