How do I track my overall rate of return?

The rate of return on an investment is a cumulative, annualized measure of the gain from your investment relative to the initial cost of the investment. LendingClub calculates “Net Annualized Return,” but there are several methods for calculating a rate of return that you may want to consider.

Your Net Annualized Return (NAR) is available to view on the Account Summary page and is updated on a daily basis. The NAR calculation is based on interest and any late fees from borrower payments received each month, net of service charges, charge offs, and recoveries.

Like any calculation of a rate of return, NAR is not a forward-looking projection of future performance; it is a calculation of the rate you have received from the time you started investing until the time the NAR is calculated. Your NAR will become available in your account after you receive your first borrower payment.

Savings are not guaranteed and depend upon various factors, including but not limited to interest rates, fees, and loan term length.

A representative example of payment terms for a Personal Loan is as follows: a borrower receives a loan of $19,008 for a term of 36 months, with an interest rate of 11.74% and a 6.00% origination fee of $1,140 for an APR of 16.09%. In this example, the borrower will receive $17,868 and will make 36 monthly payments of $629. Loan amounts range from $1,000 to $40,000 and loan term lengths range from 24 months to 60 months. Some amounts, rates, and term lengths may be unavailable in certain states. 

For Personal Loans, APR ranges from 8.91% to 35.99% and origination fee ranges from 3.00% to 8.00% of the loan amount. APRs and origination fees are determined at the time of application. Lowest APR is available to borrowers with excellent credit. Advertised rates and fees are valid as of Oct 10, 2024 and are subject to change without notice. 

Checking a rate through us generates a soft credit inquiry on a person’s credit report, which is visible only to that person. A hard credit inquiry, which is visible to that person and others, and which may affect that person’s credit score, only appears on the person’s credit report if and when a loan is issued to the person. Credit eligibility is not guaranteed. APR and other credit terms depend upon credit score and other key financing characteristics, including but not limited to the amount financed, loan term length, and credit usage and history.
