Ahead of new loans landing on site, we thought we should remind visitors and registered lenders that lending to our carefully vetted borrowing companies is not a one-stage process. Investors who buy a fund or make a cash deposit into a building society account have done all the process they need to. With lending, depositing […]

Investors who buy a fund or make a cash deposit into a building society account have done all the process they need to. With lending, depositing money is just the first part. After that, […]
As we pursue a niche-lending policy (property, music rights, litigation), it has gone rather quiet on the lending front. However, new loans are due on site when the business streams open up – so we thought it opportune to provide one of our regular refreshers on how to lend to our carefully vetted borrowing companies.

Lending to our carefully vetted borrowing companies is not a one-stage process. Investors who buy a fund or make a cash deposit into a building society account have done all the process they need to. With lending, depositing money is just the first part. After that, you have to choose a company and then deploy […]

As the tax year draws to a close, we revisit the attractions of peer-to-peer (P2p) loans as assets suitable for a self-administered pension plan (SIPP).

The IFISA is the device by which peer-to-peer (P2P) loans such as those on this platform can offer investors tax-free income. We thought we’d offer a little […]
It’s always interesting to see how the rapidly expanding peer-to-peer (P2P) sector is valued. Today, we look at a report from our friends at P2P Financial News on a capital-raising effort by a P2P player that is moving from private to public.
