Featuring Paul Lisiak

Published on: November 23rd, 2016 • Duration: 33 minutes

Paul Lisiak’s Metropolitan Equity Partners moved into the Direct Lending space in 2008 and hasn’t looked back, with their sweet spot funding small businesses and filling the gap left by banks, hit by regulation after the financial crisis. Running through the mechanics of the business, Paul outlines the depth of the market opportunity and their investment process, while sizing up the competition in the peer to peer lending space.
