Loan dilemma
Rajesh is a 24 year old student who can’t wait to lay his hands on the recently launched smartphone worth Rs. 15,000. The only hitch, neither does he have so much of savings nor is his pocket money so high and banks and NBFCs will not give him a loan as he is a still a student and doesn’t have any source of income.
Like Rajesh, there are many people who want to fulfil their various aspirations like buying a gadget or consumer durable, buying a vehicle, going for a vacation, higher education, marriage, starting a business or expanding an existing business or meeting medical emergencies. Quite a few people don’t get loans from banks and NBFCs. Some of the reasons for not getting loans include:
- The person is not earning and hence does not qualify for a loan
- The person has never borrowed before and hence doesn’t have a credit score and so does not qualify for a loan
- The person is earning less than the threshold set by the bank or NBFC to qualify for a loan
- The person is working in an industry which is excluded by the bank or NBFC for loans
- The person does not have enough collateral / security to offer against the loan
- The person has a bad credit history as the person has defaulted on loans in the past
- The person has just started a new business or the existing business lacks credibility etc. and so on
The list of reasons for not getting a loan can go on, but that is not the point. The point is how do these people get loans and fulfil their aspirations or meet any medical emergency that may arise. This is where peer to peer (P2P) websites like i2ifunding.com are filling the gap.
Peer to Peer (P2P) websites
P2P websites act as online intermediaries between borrowers and lenders. Through this platform, individual borrowers can get their loans financed directly by individual lenders. The borrowers then pay regular EMIs to lenders.
