Recoveries, Collections and Cash flow: February Data

Bondora was able to recover more missed loan payments than previous months, a testament to our dedication to tracking down missed peer-to-peer loan payments. While defaults are expected and always accounted for within our risk ratings, we still do everything we can to limit missed payments from our borrowers.

Recovery count

The largest increase in recoveries on the month came from working with local bailiffs to track down missed payments. Total recoveries in the bailiff stage of recovery came in at 9,431, 4.2% higher than in January. Recoveries in Estonia and Spain were relatively stable on the month, while there were 498 more cases in recovery in Finland, a 6.3% increase over the previous month.

Recovery cash flow

All told, less money was collected in recoveries in February. A total of €330,022 was collected over the month, a slight decrease of 4.6%. Interestingly, even as there was an increase in the recovery count of bailiff stage recoveries, the missed payments collected in that same category decreased by 11.6%, down to €210,365. This means the average missed payment recovered was less in February than in January. The majority of this decrease was seen in recoveries from Estonia, which totalled €192,740 in January and dropped to €164,756 this month, a decrease of 14.5%.

Recoveries by country

The increase in the 2019 total recovery rate can be directly attributed to recoveries in Finland, where the recovery rate increased from 63.25% to 96.98%, boosting the overall recovery rate for Bondora loans on the month. Recovery rates in historical years remained relatively stable, plus or minus 5% in most cases.

Continuing collections for missed payments

For peer-to-peer lending investors, missed payments are nothing to be afraid of. That is, as long as missed payments are vigilantly tracked and accounted for at the most detailed level. As risk and defaults are two separate things. This requires a team of people hard at work in missed payment recoveries, and credit analytics.
