Peer to peer lending, or P2P for short, is a recent and innovative lending model that brings together lenders (investors) with borrowers outside the traditional credit providers, essentially, cutting out financial intermediaries. P2P lending matches people who have money to invest with people who are looking for a loan, without the stress and hassle of going through a bank or credit union.
Investment highlights:
- Target returns of 10% p.a. for retail investors and 12.5% p.a. for wholesale investors (pre-tax, post fund expenses) in the form of monthly distributions.
- High level of automation resulting in lower running costs of the fund
- Default risk diversified through:
- Large group of borrowers = 17,000+
- Small loan size = $200 – $3,500
- Short loan terms = maximum 90 days
- Money lent to date $41.545M – as at 31/8/2017
- Average loan duration – 42 days (90% paid within 30 days)
- Bad debt rate <5%
- Minimum investment – $1,000 (retail) OR $25,000 (wholesale)
- Investment timeframe – 6 months (retail) OR 12 months (wholesale)
