BALTIMORE (PRWEB) March 02, 2017 -- eOriginal, Inc., the digital transaction expert, today announced that it has joined the Marketplace Lending Association (MLA), the leading industry trade group. Directly aligned with eOriginal’s position as a pioneer in FinTech, MLA’s goal is to promote a transparent, efficient and customer-friendly financial system by supporting the responsible growth of marketplace lending, fostering innovation in financial technology and encouraging sound public policy.
