0.5% cashback on all PM investments in loans from the two newly formed "LO conglomerates". I&A excluded. Auto-invest and manual are both OK. Details here. No limits on loan term! At the moment, there are short-term loans, including ones with a term of 1 day, with 13.5% yield eligible for the 0.5% cashback, meaning that there are now loans on Mintos that pay more than any Kuetzal project ever did (annualised of course). Generous? Or desperate? I've held my nose and deployed all of my free cash into these gambling instruments, hoping that there won't be a collapse in the next couple of months. Those with more common sense may choose to sit this one out. Edited to add: Cloudflare may mangle the link if you're not logged in. Just check the most recent Mintos blog entry.

I do not know about the LOs belonging to Sun Finance (just absolute casino gambling in my opinion), but w.r.t. Finko, the Varks loans (highest rated) are ALL with the extension embedded, this means that they can easily show you 1-2 days at 0.5% (which annualized would be 90-180%) on the primary market, but then they can easily extend the loans for a further 3 months (and they quite often do), but they might decide to extend every single loan sold with the 0.5% cashback , which would add just 2% to the (for example) 12% int rate taking the effective interest rate to 14%. Also have to consider that if you build up in this way a big Finko position you will probably have to hold its risk for a while.

I was doing a back-of-the-envelope calculation, conservatively assuming that 20% of loans are paid on the due date and the rest take the full 61 days, but I forgot to account for the harmful "extension" feature. In fact it looks like 55% of the loans I bought finished on the due date (yesterday), so ROI will end up being pretty good in any case, provided of course that the LO doesn't go bust.
