Simplification of Modes Used for P2P Lending Spurs Demand
Demand for P2P lending is anticipated to gain impetus in the near future due to the availability
of simplified modes such as enhanced online interfaces. Technological advancement could be
key for the growth of the world P2P lending market. Borrowers could receive instant updates
about the amount of funds present in their bank accounts and completion of the lending
process or seek funding online. Massive demand for simpler ways of getting student loans
sanctioned supported by rising population of students is expected to bode well for the market.
It could be cashed in on by vendors for gaining traction in terms of revenue share.
Today, lending and borrowing are said to have become an easier process due to the advent of
advanced technologies such as prediction software that estimates the borrower’s financial
capability to repay loans and also calculates loan amounts based on different factors.
Borrowers Turning to Banks could Pose Possible Risk to Market
The international P2P lending market could be risked by the turning away of borrowers and
finding more interest in other professional lenders including banks. There is a huge pressure on
conventional lenders as well as banks to improve their interest rates owing to the ongoing
battle of securing a larger market share. Consequently, the future of the market could be
dented due to the rise of schemes offering high interest rates on savings. Moreover, defaults in
loan repayment increasing direct risks that investors are exposed to are foreseen to hamper the
demand in the market.
However, there could be strong growth opportunities available in China and India because of
their colossal population base. Furthermore, there is a wide gap between the willingness of P2P
lending vendors to expand their business and inaccessibility to credit modes that needs to be
fulfilled. Asia Pacific could also offer lucrative prospects on the back of rising loan requirement
of SMEs in its emerging economies.
