Following some inaccurate reporting in mainstream media this week end, Peer 2 Peer Finance News runs an article that betrays an understanding of how P2P financial technology businesses and start-ups like Money&Co. actually work. The P2PFN article points out that the inaccurate report focused on “small company accounts filed by Denmark Square Limited – one […]
