Canaan Partners, Part 1: Dan Ciporin discusses FinTech from the venture capital standpoint.

This episode is another in an ongoing series on this show where we talk to some of the leading investors in the financial technology space. This week’s guest provides an interesting perspective we haven’t really heard from yet — Kevin Bhatt is a partner at Long Ridge Equity Partners. He and his firm are growth stage investors — typically coming in a bit later in a company’s growth cycle than some of our other guests on the Tradestreaming Podcast: guys like Phin Upham of Thiel Capital, Caribou Honig of QED, Charles Moldow of Foundation Capita and Canaan’s Dan Ciporin . Those guys are frequently the first institutional capital into a young company while Kevin’s firm comes in after a company has a product in the market and is generating millions of dollars of revenue. I think you’ll find our conversation interesting as we talk about investment opportunities in financial services that you probably haven’t thought of. Kevin’s an astute analyst of the financial services ecosystem with a long term view on organic themes and changes in the industry. We talk about some of his investment themes, discuss some of the investments he’s made and where he’s looking to deploy more capital.

We’ve explored various themes on investing in financial technology on this show. We’ve interviewed Caribou Honig at QED Investors. We’ve also spoken to to Foundation Capital’s Charles Moldow. If you were to put together an all-star team of fintech investors, you’d also want to include Dan Ciporin from Canaan Partners. He was the first institutional investor in Lending Club and has a portfolio that includes CircleUp, Orchard, borro, and direct match. You can see the marketplace finance and marketplace lending theme played out in his investments. Dan joins us on this week’s episode of the Tradestreaming Podcast. We talk about a variety of different things: first and foremost, we talk about his investments, why he made them, and what he’s looking at investing in in the future. We talk about his background — how being the CEO of Shopping.com and selling it to eBay and his previous experience at MasterCard influenced his perspective on consumer credit and its investability. It’s a great episode and glad you’ve joined us. Now, here’s our interview with Dan Ciporin of Canaan Partners.

State of the Real Estate Online Lending Market by Dan Ciporin, General Partner at Canaan Partners. The real estate lending market is a $15 Trillion market, compared to $2.2 Trillion for consumer loans and $300 Billion for small business loans. Despite this, real estate currently only comprises of 5% of total marketplace lending. The steps necessary to increase real estate marketplace lending include: coming up with standardized risk metrics, enabling infrastructure and technology to manage data, and creating a real-time marketplace. It is interesting to see the business model parallels between marketplace lenders now and the successful internet giants, who made their money by being an advertising platform. Marketplace lenders are being the platform between investors and borrowers or sponsors.
