edly is a marketplace that connects schools with accredited ISA investors. This marketplace enables accredited investors to do well by doing good. edly ISA investors are part of the solution to this generation’s top financial challenge – to fund increasingly valuable training and education without debt. We offer access to “shares” of income share agreements (ISAs), unique financial assets tied to future student success. These investments fund students’ tuition, and are repaid by students only after they secure employment. Unlike student loans, which can be punitive and unaffordable, ISA investments on the edly marketplace are affordable by definition, and reward and fuel ongoing student success. edly’s defining feature is a unique alignment of interests between schools, students, and capital providers. Schools keep skin in the game by retaining part-ownership of edly ISAs. Our ISAs are not loans and they do have significant investment risk; they offer a more flexible way for students to finance higher education, and for schools to access ISA program liquidity. Schools participating in the edly marketplace are educational institutions that provide high-quality, affordable training with positive employment outcomes for graduates.
