    After reaching the first billion euros funded in loans on Mintos in August 2018, the next three milestones came in 2019: EUR 2 billion of loans funded in April, EUR 3 billion in August, and EUR 4 billion in November. This impressive growth rate illustrates not only demand for the Mintos service, but overall growing interest in investing in loans among individual investors globally.

    Over the last few months Mintos has also made several announcements in respect of another lender – Aforti Finance. This is another lender that has effectively defaulted by not passing on all the payments that were due to investors.

    Mintos has announced that it is issuing a notice of default against one of its lenders – Rapido. The background to this is that Rapido had run out of cash and stopped making the cash remittances to Mintos investors that it was legally required to. The notice of default is a legal procedure but essentially the result of this will be most likely that Rapido is forced to either pay all the funds due immediately, or be forced into insolvency.

    The secondary market of Mintos is huge, almost as big as the primary market. Many investors choose to invest in loans or buy loans that other investors have at a discount.

    If you want to sell a loan so you can get your invested money back, you can do it in the secondary market . To do this you will probably need to sell your loan at a small discount to attract buyers.

    The majority (over 99%) of Mintos loans are covered by a buyback guarantee . Each platform defines differently the guarantees it provides in case the borrower fails to repay the loan. Specifically, Mintos stipulates that if the borrower fails to pay the projected monthly installment for 60 days the loan originator will intervene and compensate the investor with the invested capital + interest for the period the investor had invested in the loan, including 60 days overdue.

Too many outstanding payments and chargebacks. No/ very little information on how to deal with Wowwo and other defaulting lenders. Lower interest rates than other platforms. I've been with mintos for years and everything used to work fine. Loans were paid back in time, so that one could estimate what money will be available again and when. In the meantime, over 75% of the loans are clearly too late and some are being recovered.

So if you are diversified across 1,000 loans at Mintos and all have a buyback guarantee from one loan originator, is it reasonable to view it as an investment in ONE single company, from the risk perspective? (the loan originator)
