Hello, I recently open an account at NeoFinance.com, (I can't even remember where I found out about them), they seem to be offering relatively high interest rates (around 20%), however they claim in their front page that they offer "buy back and provision fund" implying they offer a buy back mechanism separately from the provision fund (which they don't). On the second paragraph of the "Information about Assumed Risks" they wrote: This "Information about Assumed Risks" can be found when we open any loan offer.
Has anyone else tried Neofinance? is this another Bondora?
As a clarification I have to say that they do offer a provision fund in exchange for a fee up to 15% of the loan investment. They also have no skin on the game, As far as I can tell.

Hi Pedrolopes We actually just published an interview today with their Chairman which explains how the buyback works. Essentially they buy back defaulted loans at different prices (50-70% of balance amount) according to risk grade. The management team says that the prices equate to their historic recovery experience, although they seem higher than expected to us. They also offer another option with a full buyback but the expected returns are much lower (6% rather than 13%). Interview with NEO Finance Chairman

Thank you for your answer. I would not call that a buy back schema. That is a partial buy back. 6% interest rates... that changes the perspective quite a lot.
