Los Angeles, CA, February 25, 2019 — PeerStreet, a marketplace for investing in real estate backed loans, was recently named as one of the 2019 Best Places to Work in Financial Technology. The awards program was created in 2017 and is a project of SourceMedia and Best Companies Group.
This annual survey and awards program is designed to identify, recognize and honor the best employers in the financial technology industry. Companies recognized on this year’s list operate in and serve companies and consumers in a wide range of financial services, including banking and mortgages, insurance, payments and financial advisory.
This recognition follows PeerStreet’s continuing growth as a dominant force in transforming the real estate investing industry. Just a few short years after its public launch, PeerStreet is proud to appear on the American Banker’s Best Places to Work in Financial Technology list for the second consecutive year. PeerStreet is also included in CB Insights Fintech 250 list of fastest-growing fintech startups and the HousingWire Tech 100. In 2018, PeerStreet was also named a best place to work by the Comparably Awards, including in the Overall Best Companies and Best Companies for Diversity categories.
“We experienced massive growth for PeerStreet last year. We surpassed $1 billion transacted on our platform in 2018 alone, and continued to develop new products for our investors and lenders. We are incredibly proud that with this growth, PeerStreet has remained focused on maintaining a collaborative and inspiring place to work for our team,” said Brett Crosby, co-founder and COO of PeerStreet.
“Every one of the companies named to Source Media’s Best Places to Work in Financial Technology list demonstrated a culture focused on supporting and engaging employees,” said Richard Melville, Group Editorial Director at SourceMedia.
