That’s why interest rates are higher, in order to maximise lender's profits. Risk/profit ratio must be interesting to investors
That's all very well, but is there any way to mitigate the risks? It will be awesome, if there are any!
Yep, I know one of such ways. There is a professional scoring procedure of borrowers, before their loan requests get published, it’s like a reputation in the «lending world». This system allows lenders to choose a reliable borrower, therefore reduce their risks.
Also, there is one more way! Lender could get part of his investments from a compensation fund, that was created by a system.
