This Estonian site came up as a banner ad here on the forum. Has anyone looked into it? "Quanloop is an investment fund dedicated to wholesale funding. We attract capital from investors like you and act as the main source of financing for our commercial finance intermediary partners, such as leasing or factoring companies, crowdfunding platforms, etc. We apply a unique business model by sourcing money for only 24 hours and splitting the capital in need into a myriad of tiny credit agreements, each valued at €1. Every day, our partners source capital from Quanloop by introducing projects (loans, assets, etc.) they wish to finance. Following a strict filtering programme, we accept the projects for wholesale funding and prepare to pool funds from our investors. The projects being financed by Quanloop act as collateral for the money borrowed from you and other investors. To avoid complex legal structures for collateral management, Quanloop pledges its capital to investors — so each Euro you invest is covered by a weighty portfolio which is under our management.

W.T.F. is "cashback to cover the inflation loss" supposed to be?
Besides this small detail: I suggest to be very careful here. You immediately discover some details on their website that don’t seem to make sense:
At first glance this seems to be about loans, but you then find under “About Quanloop” and “Legal structure” some explanations that could mean you are buying parts of “an investment vehicle designed for private equity, venture capital investments or investments in a variety of assets, often with complex portfolio-construction and risk-management techniques“. But there is also language about a fund manager „Bondkick“ and one or several unnamed „general partner“(s). Bondkick doesn’t seem to have a working website at the time of this writing, and in their LinkedIn profile they describe themselves as “blockchain investment funds manager and syndicated capital distributor“. So whatever it may be you are investing in here, it’s most likely not loans in the sense of what other established p2p platforms are offering.
Further, their concept seems to be to let the investor decide what the right interest rate may be for the investment. This has been tried several times before and there is a lot of literature available showing that it does not work, at least not for the investor. The reason is the asymmetry of information. That’s why, e.g. for bonds, the entity that is asking for investor money provides a set of information and an offered interest rate (together: the prospectus), and then investors can make a decision whether to invest in that risk or not.
What Quanloop seems to be doing is provide no information and let the investor guess what might be the right interest rate for that (unknown) risk.
I would stay away.

Did you invest, @nomad ? How has it gone for you? I'm intrigued, now that this platform has established the beginnings of a track record.

Great to hear that.
Could you share a little information on the platform where does it invest its funds and so forth. Very little I can find on it.
Thank you in advance

Thank you in advance I don't know any more than is shown on their website - www.quanloop.com/en/aboutI started small and gradually increased my investment to 5 figures as they showed themselves to be very reliable (so far!). I have chosen risk settings which produce 9% return.
