SALT LAKE CITY — LoanPro, a API-first, modern lending and credit platform, has announced the launch of its podcast series, “Accrued,” in partnership with Tedd Huff and Fintech Confidential.

Hosted by Tedd Huff, the founder and CEO of Voalyre and an industry veteran with more than two decades of experience, Fintech Confidential brings listeners closer to the “people, tech and companies” making a significant impact in the financial world.

“Accrued” aims to provide digestible insights on how lending technology is driving increased personalization, modernization, compliance and optimization across the industry.

Joining Huff is Colton Pond, LoanPro’s chief marketing officer, a seasoned marketing executive with knowledge of fintech and financial services.

“I’ve spent the past six years speaking with thousands of banks, credit unions and fintechs,” Pond said. “We’re looking forward to bringing on the sharpest minds in the industry to share real-world and tangible insights. We’ve already had some incredible, candid conversations and we’re excited to share these insights with the industry.”

A few of the podcasts have featured:

• Mike Dushane, chief product officer at Octane, talking about how they’ve “automated every step of the loan lifecycle from document processing to credit decisioning.”
• Joe Heck, CEO of Happy Money, talking about fostering a happier way of lending by using “cash flow position data that reduces customers’ level of stress, which also reduces risk on the loan asset.”
• Brent Beardall, president and CEO of WaFd Bank, highlighting that in order for regional banks to stay competitive, they need to avoid hubris — a common pitfall he’s observed has led to past bank failures.
• Scott Johnson, SVP of business development at Galileo, advising banks to start core modernization with a “bolt-on approach:” Using a modern banking core alongside existing systems while gradually adding features and functionalities before fully migrating.

LoanPro is a lending and credit platform enabling lenders to innovate quicker, driving account growth while optimizing operational efficiency. Fintech Confidential is a video show and podcast produced by DD3 media that brings together people, tech and companies that change how people pay and get paid with entertaining information.
