LendKey announces this advancement to its tech stack on the heels of an already strong year for product development. In January, LendKey announced it had enhanced the capabilities of ALIRO, its platform that allows for the sale and purchase of loans. ALIRO now offers bespoke transactions to address one-time loan sales and balance sheet needs in addition to programmatic forward flow transactions.
