My podcast guest is again Yann Murciano, the CEO and founder of Blend Network. Yann was a commodities trader with Morgan Stanley for 10 years before launching Blend Network, a peer to peer lending company based on secured property lending.

Yann explains how investors can benefit from investing through Blend Network as well as comments on the downfall of Lendy and how investors can select the correct investing companies. Here are some of the podcast discussion points:

Yann and his team bring an immense amount of experience to the peer to peer lending industry and think Blend Network has a bright future.

My guest is once again Stuart Law, the CEO and founder of Assetz Capital. Stuart has been an entrepreneur since 18 years old and founded Assetz Capital to solve the capital shortage problem smaller businesses face. Assetz Capital offers several different products that provide lenders ways to receive respectable returns in the era of despicably low savings rates.

Stuart provides his insight into the inner workings of Assetz Capital and the general future of peer to peer lending. Here are some of the podcast discussion points:

The conversation was extremely insightful as Assetz Capital is a company I have had great experiences using and one I continue to invest my own money through.

Lendy was one of the most popular peer to peer companies offering property bridging and development loans where lenders can earn up to 1% per month. Unfortunately, Lendy investors suffered losses when Lendy failed due to poor loan offerings followed by allegations of fraud.

Here is part 2 of the podcast. Part 1 is here.

Prior to Lendy’s failure, I had the opportunity to interview Lendy. Here are some of the things Liam, Paul and I chatted about over parts 1 and 2:

As of December 5th, 2019, Landbay no longer offers retail peer to peer lending. New investors will no longer be accepted and existing investors will see their funds returned to their accounts. You can read my full Landbay summary here.

My guest this week is John Goodall, the CEO and co-founder of Landbay. I consider Landbay one of the safer peer to peer lending companies and it’s one of the companies I invest money through. You can read my full Landbay review and summary here.

John was a good sport, even after I painfully blessed him with one of my poorer joke offerings.

Here are some of the things John and I chatted about:

On May 23rd, 2019, the powers that be at Bondmason decided to discontinue their peer to peer lending, choosing to no longer accept new investors and wind down their current loan book. The reasons for this decision are based on rising cost factors, economic forecasts and the ability to deliver net returns based upon equivalent risk. Looking back after Covid-19, this proved to be a timely decision.

My guest on this podcast is Stephen Findlay, the CEO and founder of Bondmason, one of the peer to peer lending I used to invest through.

I thoroughly enjoyed my chat with Stephen and here are some of the things we discussed:
