Buckley Sandler Webcast: Recent Developments Impacting Marketplace Lending Platforms

Join Buckley Sandler attorneys John Kromer, Clint Rockwell, Walter Zalenski, and Moorari Shah, for a discussion on recent developments related to partnerships between banks and alternative lenders. The lower costs, flexible products, and consumer convenience ushered in by digital lending means it is here to stay—but regulatory turbulence may force mid-course corrections. After a year of historic growth in 2015, the first half of 2016 has seen a series of potentially game-changing events for the marketplace lending industry, including the Supreme Court’s decision not to consider an appeal of the Second Circuit’s ruling in Madden v. Midland Funding, LLC.

We will review the implications of Madden and several other recent court decisions and regulatory actions as they relate to federal preemption, “true lender” challenges, state licensing requirements, and other issues.
