This is a sketchy overview, it's more to find out what other people know than to describe the platform thoroughly, I might easily have got some details wromg
The good news, the firm themselves guarantee 10% of some failed loans (not all), so skin in game. The insured loans come at 90% insurance 6% interest, or 100% cover (90& insurance plus 10% platform guarantee) at 4% interest. (Got to choose the former surely?)
Uninsured Supply Chain Finance – We will protect the first 10% of your capital advance Uninsured Invoice Trading – We will protect the first 10% of your capital advance Education Finance – We do not provide any protection on these funding opportunities.
For those of us in BM Bondmason we have some exposure already. Lessons on Investly remind me that these loans are very short duration 4-6weeks often, so one bad one can wipe out an entire year or more
Worth it?

Is there a minimum investment amount? Vaguely recall looking at them back when they were branded as Platform Black.

If the loans are 90% (or 100%) insured are there any circumstances when the insurance would not pay out? I have used Sancus in the past and found the platform easy to use but sufferred quite a large loss on what seemed to be "a dishonest" invoice financing deal.This wiped out allmy earnings and made me wary.

I suffered some losses that wiped out years of gains. Cash drag became such an issue was fast fingers first. There was a non-spoken about auto allocation system so some received allocations first. Parameters of the game changed without working with lenders and it seemed it was more about gaining institutional lenders rather then people with say 50-150k of funds.
