15% has been achieved with Eastern European platforms where there have been buyback guarantees and SO FAR no meltdowns of any importance, unlike in the UK where we have the FCA to provide additional risk. Not so easy currently but 11 or 12% is still on offer whereas in the UK that level seems to carry considerable risk. What will happen in future is anybody's guess. Even with Bondora with all the defaults I expect to realise about 12% after recoveries, but I don't think anyone on there would achieve that by investing now.

Probably because just like on the thread elsewhere, Godanubis has found some random graph that shows "the stockmarket" (of a random definition chosen by Godanubis ) down over the last two years and will no doubt be along to tell us all how we would have all done better if we put our life savings into P2P because "look at this graph" or "look at these stats I've found on the internet" whilst ignoring the fact that P2P is the stockmarket equivalent to Junk Bonds or obscure nanocaps (let alone the hundreds of other variables).
In another thread, Godanubis claims a science background. I'm stunned a career scientist could remotely consider a poll such as this one to be viable.
I'm outta here, the naivety is too painful to watch.
Likewise the pompousness. This from the chap that tried to suggest P/E is irrelevant and then went on to ridicule my proposed purchase of VODA three months ago at 129 and now pushing 160. Thanks goodness my noise filters worked on that occasion. Now then should I sell or hold? I think I'll hold for a few years.
