SoFi's falling loan platform volumes reflect its bank charter at work, not tightening credit. Deposits now fund 96% of the balance sheet, up from 78% in 2023, and CET1 is 21.1%, so capacity outgrows originations and platform sales shrink mechanically; a roughly 13% loan coupon versus 3% deposit costs likely favors holding loans. Record-tight 86bp securitization spreads show buyers aren't retreating. The bull case rests on member growth, now 35%, staying solidly double-digit for several years. x.comÂ
