Massive round of applause for Assetz. Reputation is everything.

I wouldn't be writing anything off here, mentally or whatever. These loans were supposed to be done by tranche drawdowns. As stated in the loan information which forms part of the contract with the lenders. So the money will need to be refunded and Az will have to pursue the lost funds themselves. There you go, Nostra-Confident strikes again. Congrats Mr confident what's your view on the DM loan.

Excellent news! I'm sure most lenders in I** will appreciate the proposed outcome. Very good for restoring lender's confidence in the platform. When the process is concluded I'm most likely to reinvest received funds back in AC.

I'm not invested in these loans (I'm relatively new to P2P and AC) but have been following the situation closely. I'm just delighted to see these reactions to what is obviously good news. Congratulations, guys!

Much better outcome than I expected, especially since it covers MLA investors too. Even paying some interest!
Tough news for the shareholders.

Not necessarily. There have been at least a couple of comments from lenders who have been understandably encouraged by this turn of events, and as a result have said they would be confident in committing further funds to the platform. I think there will be plenty of others, myself included, who are of a like mind. That's good news for shareholders. Not sure exactly what I can say here, but it seems that AC may be able to recover a good proportion of the loan monies from a couple of potential sources, so the financial hit may be a lot let severe than some might think. So that's also good news for shareholders.

I actually think it's good news for the shareholders (of which I am one). I am also a lender. If Assetz hadn't made good on their alleged mistakes / alleged problems with due diligence (I choose my words carefully), their reputation could have tanked, at the very least, and at worst, lengthy wrangling with lenders and even FCA. An impairment in medium-term value on a non-volatile/illiquid exchange (Seedrs) is nothing compared to a business with a bargepole reputation. Assetz is proving that it is serious about its business, and won't push its alleged mistakes onto lenders. Yes, it may be painful if there is little security to be recovered, but learning from alleged mistakes makes a company stronger. If I have one criticism, it is the slowness to address lenders' concerns in several threads here, leading to some very negative comments that could have been avoided.

I totally agree this is a good move on behalf of AC. Overall AC is a great company and it would be a shame if they let their reputation get tarnished by these loans.

The response taken by AC will pay dividends to them as a company, reputation and trust is priceless, some other p2p sites should learn from this.

Or maybe look at the Midland loans.
