Prime Meridian Capital Management (Prime Meridian) which offers the Prime Meridian Income Fund, a peer- to-peer (P2P) lending fund, announces the release of a white paper, “P2P Lending for Institutional Investors and Wealth Managers: An Overview.”

The white paper, written by Mark Shore, founder and chief research officer of Shore Capital Management LLC and adjunct professor at DePaul University’s Kellstadt Graduate School of Business, summarizes the significance of P2P lending for institutional investors, wealth managers, and investment advisors. It gives a brief look at the history of P2P lending, its growth, and why P2P lending may be an attractive alternative investment for professional investors and high-net worth individuals.

Prime Meridian’s managing partner, Don Davis will also participate on the, “P2P Lending for Institutional Investors,” panel at the LendIt P2P Lending Conference on May 5-6, 2014, in San Francisco, CA. LendIt is the premiere P2P lending conference in the US bringing together industry professionals worldwide. Mr. Jon Palan, formerly of Lending Club, will moderate Mr. Davis’ panel. Prime Meridian will also exhibit at LendIt and its booth will be staffed with representatives to introduce and answer questions about the Prime Meridian Income Fund.

“P2P lending is an incredibly exciting and fast growing investment space. Despite this growth, we noticed the lack of information, articles, and research targeting the needs of institutional investors and wealth managers,” said Mr. Davis. “To address this unmet need, we sponsored alternative investments specialist Mark Shore to craft this white paper. Our goal was to provide compelling insight into this relatively new sector of P2P lending for investment professionals. Based on the initial feedback we’ve received, we’re pleased to report this whitepaper hits that mark.”

Since its inception two years ago, the Prime Meridian Income Fund has achieved 100 percent positive monthly returns. Prime Meridian has a well-developed process and computerized algorithm designed to identify opportunities quickly, assess risk, and then capture attractive opportunities—attempting to spread risk and thereby increase the possibility of returns as demonstrated by its above average historical returns.

“P2P Lending for Institutional Investors and Wealth Managers: An Overview,” is a great resource for fund managers and advisors to share with clients and decision makers.
