This is great. I have been using LendingRobot lately. I will have to rethink some of my strategies based on what I see in this article.

Re: A Dive Into The Lending Club Data
#12Nice post. I see that you used dc.js, could you share some code ?
The code to process the lending club data is done in python. I got the full history of all payments made on the platform and pre-process it to have something that's light enough to be explored with a good user experience. For the viz', yes I used DC.js, I can open source the .js if you guys want it.

#13Very useful tool. Gives valuable insight on how to select filters in portfolio construction. If "the Pearl" was a existing product, I would definitely invest in it.

#14The employment length is really bugging me. I've always selected people with a few years at their current job, leaning towards higher, because it feels safe, but this says that My other big hit is 3 versus 5-year terms. Anyone here care to comment? I like the 36 months because it feels more liquid and when I started I wasn't sure LendingClub was going to be around for a decade or more. Beginning to think I should rec…
They made it public at some point. Now they are a little less transparent about it.
But some details can be found in their SEC prospectus.
I can link that up as well if you guys want.

Hi Clement, very neat dataviz ! How did you get the full history of all payments ? Is it available in the open ? What is 100mdeep btw ? Just a blogging site you are bootstraping or any plans to make a living out of it ? (We met a few months ago @ ToucanToco...)
Plans will depend on feedbacks I receive. If it generates enough interest I will develop the project into something bigger.

It probably needs to be controlled for social class and job type but I think this could explain the phenomenon.
Re: A Dive Into The Lending Club Data
#20Thanks Clement for this beautifully simple dc.js dataviz. How long did you play with it before finding the pearl? Do you think there are yet other pearls to find in your tool?
But I'd say that for starter, anything in the 8%-9% range is a very good deal these days in this environment
