What is P2P lending?
P2P lending (person-to-person lending) is the direct issuance of loans from a creditor to a borrower without the participation of traditional financial institutions. This service is provided by specialized platforms where the user can act both as a lender and as a borrower. Borrowers get cheaper loans (the cost of lending platforms is lower than that of banks), and investors get access to direct investment in loan portfolios at more risk-friendly rates than bank deposits / bonds.
