Building a New Asset Class: Unlocking Recurring Revenue for Institutional Investors with Michal Cieplinski, Expert in Lending and Capital Markets and Chief Business Officer of Pipe Alt Goes Mainstream: The Latest on Alternative Investments, WealthTech, & Private Markets

Today, we have an expert in lending and capital markets on the Alt Goes Mainstream podcast to discuss how his company, Pipe, is building a new asset class.

Michal Cieplinski is the Chief Business Officer for Pipe, a fast growing fintech company.

Pipe has seen a rapid rise over the past year. They are one of the fastest fintech companies to reach a $2 billion valuation – and it’s in large part because investors see the potential to build a platform that unlocks recurring revenue as an investable asset class for the world’s largest institutional investors.

Michal deeply understands the inner workings of credit and lending on both the borrower and lender side from his experiences helping to build Fundbox, LendingClub, and now Pipe.

Pipe was born from the idea that entrepreneurs and companies should be able to grow their businesses on their terms – without taking debt or dilution.

This was a fascinating discussion with someone who has seen the evolution of a number of lending platforms.
