Pre-Holiday Prosper Upgrade

Prosper finished a 5 hour upgrade session last night and has deployed a few new features in what is probably the last upgrade for the year (no doubt followed by chugging some spiked eggnog and getting out of dodge). I found three lender-centric changes that caught my attention.

First, Prosper tweaked with the lender statistics reporting page to adjust the Active Loan Summary section as was hinted at on the Prosper forums. It did not resolve all the accounting ambiguities for incoming payments, but it's better than it was.

Second, Prosper sped up their marketplace performance search page (to make the quants happy, they say). I spend a gratuitous amount of time here, so I appreciate this upgrade.

RateLadder has also covered the upgrade.
