When I want to take a loan for my business, I don’t want to wait so long for approval. I want my money now. Banks are slow, and P2P lending platforms are fast becoming the way forward. People can now easily borrow and lend money to others without middlemen receiving a massive cut or the loan disbursement taking forever to happen. But despite these improvements, the coast still isn’t clear. Some P2P lending platforms are still clunky, loan processing is still slow, and Mr. Fraud still says hello from time to time. Mr. Fraud How can we fix this and improve a system that is so beneficial to millions across the world? How can we fix this and improve a system that is so beneficial to millions across the world? The answer is automation. Everything gets better with automation. It isn’t just a “cool” add-on; it effectively takes care of security, payment approval, communication, and a host of other features that I’ll show you as we proceed together. Automation makes a system filled with so much potential more secure, smarter, and faster. Now, the question isn’t whether we need automation in P2P lending; it’s how fast we can implement it to improve the system for everyone. It’s time to find out how. 5 Surefire Ways To Improve Peer-to-Peer Lending With Automation 5 Surefire Ways To Improve Peer-to-Peer Lending With Automation AI-Powered Credit Scoring Systems AI-Powered Credit Scoring Systems AI-Powered Credit Scoring Systems Losing money will always shake the bravest of hearts. From me to you: The lending business is risky! Thankfully, AI has found a way of checking if someone is creditworthy through the AI-powered Credit Scoring System. Imagine a system so precise, it can scan through 350,000 real-world loans, decode 112 subtle borrower signals, and process over €915 million in lending decisions—without breaking a sweat. That’s exactly what researchers uncovered on Estonia’s Bondora platform. But the real magic? It wasn’t done by humans. It was the work of advanced machine learning models, tuned to think faster, see deeper, and predict defaults before they ever happen. what researchers uncovered on Estonia’s Bondora platform what researchers uncovered on Estonia’s Bondora platform And among them, one model stood out—the extreme gradient-boosted Cox model—not just matching traditional credit scoring methods... but quietly, powerfully surpassing them. What if your lending decisions could be this accurate, this intuitive, this... unstoppable? You can now analyze thousands of data points and interpret even the most minor details that even experts (I dare say that) might miss. We’re talking numbers, patterns, and even psychological factors of potential customers. Many other companies use machine learning models like recurrent neural networks (RNNS) that would do a very meticulous tracking of the financial behaviour of thousands of potential customers. You can even track when a customer is struggling financially.  So, if Mr A paid his light bills promptly between January and May but slowly began to default in subsequent months or make late payments, an AI-powered scoring system would flag that and would analyze that for your array of data. What point am I driving at? Automating your P2P lending business with an AI-powered credit score system will lead to an accurate and measurable risk assessment. And when it comes to the financial business, these accuracies would reduce the risk of you losing millions to bad loans.

Fraud is a nightmare for any P2P lending platform, thankfully, the blockchain technology makes it hard for any shady business to occur because it uses cryptography and a network-wide consensus to verify every single transaction. Another huge way blockchain can improve P2P lending is through identifying verification. People steal other people’s identities, borrow huge amounts, of course, abscond, and leave innocent individuals and P2P lending platforms to deal with the debt.
