P2P Lending - Emerging Trend In The Banking Domain - Niteen From IIM Calcutta

Peer-to-peer lending (P2P lending) is the practice of lending money to individuals or businesses through online services that match lenders directly with borrowers.

As a result, lenders often earn higher returns compared to savings and investment products offered by banks, while borrowers can borrow money at lower interest rates. Currently, P2P online players are registered under the Companies Act and are largely unregulated. The people behind these fintech startups are either technocrats or young entrepreneurs.
