1. Press Release
NSR Invest and LendingRobot merge to become the largest robo-advisor in the alternative
lending space.
August 10, 2017 – Denver, CO​ – NSR Invest and LendingRobot, two of the largest specialized
Registered Investment Advisors in the alternative lending space, announced today that the
companies have merged to create the leading independent advisory platform for alternative
lending. Lend Core LLC, the parent company of NSR Invest, acquired Algorithmic, Inc. and all
its assets, including the LendingRobot website and technology.
The combination brings together two highly complementary companies, each with an excellent
reputation in the alternative, marketplace lending industry, also called peer lending. The joint
team will combine its knowledge in the industry, investment algorithms, machine learning and
blockchain technologies with the goal of providing steady investment returns to more than 8000
clients.
The websites, operating, and trading systems of NSRinvest.com and LendingRobot.com will
continue to function separately in the short term. In the immediate future, the company is
focusing its newfound strength on the LendingRobot Series. LendingRobot Series is an
alternative lending robo-fund that allows investors to achieve immediate diversification and
enhanced liquidity across the leading real estate, small business and consumer lending
platforms. Uniquely, the fund utilizes its legal structure to adapt itself to each investor’s specific
needs, and allows each investor the ability to invest according to their specific duration and risk
tolerance. In addition, LendingRobot Series leverages blockchain technology to securely publish
an immutable ledger notarized by the Ethereum Blockchain, which allows it to be one of the
most transparent funds in the industry.
