P2P platforms connect individual lenders directly with borrowers, often offering higher interest rates than banks.
Default Risk
P2P loans are unsecured. If a borrower stops paying, you can lose your entire investment in that loan.
Diversification is Vital
Don't put all your money in a few loans. Spread your investment across hundreds of small loan portions and 'notes'.
Regulatory Landscape
Laws around P2P lending vary wildly by country. Ensure you use a reputable and licensed platform.
