The stats are in! An 8 figure sum was invested in Bondora in 2017

Welcome to the monthly origination post for December, here we go in to detail about the distribution of investments that were made and some interesting stats per country of origin. If you missed November’s post, you can check it out here. The total amount invested through the platform in December was €2,867,314, the lowest figure since July. This reduction was expected over the festive period, as many people are buying presents and travelling to visit family and friends.

The total amount invested in the platform in 2017 alone was €34,960,392, this is an impressive increase of nearly 23% compared to 2016. The number of investors at the time of writing has also increased up to 31,798.

Loan origination by country

December followed a similar pattern to November, where the highest number of originations were seen in Estonia. While the share in relation to the total investments decreased here, there was a slight increase in Spain and Finland. When comparing the December originations to the summary for 2017, it’s clear that the interest rates in Spain and Finland are much lower, suggesting a smaller percentage of investors are choosing to invest in higher risk loans as part of their overall strategy in the most recent months.
