Maybe I am hallucinating but I don't remember seeing a Private Loan For A New Borrower before. As nobody else has commented about it I am thinking I must be missing something obvious so please could someone educate me.

I don't think you're missing anything obvious, I'm in the same position as you - I saw the loan appear on the secondary market last night (paused) but I haven't heard anything from ABLRate about it to the best of my knowledge.

I vaguely remember a loan to an individual (some sort of entertainer?) who was expecting to receive money in the near future. It paid 15% IIRC but I was not tempted. But it's possible that I am thinking of a loan on another platform. It's a pity that Abl don't list all historic loans as most platforms do.

Hello  . This is a new borrower who is a bit nervy about borrowing via p2p. His first loan has been funded by a couple of larger investors to break him in. Hopefully he will appear fully named in the near future as he is (so far) happy and has a great product. |

As you know there is no way to find out anything about a non-trading loan in which you are not invested via the website. Let's hope he comes back for some more soon.

Yes sorry. It seemed a bit weird to send a mail saying "Here's a loan you can't participate in" but also a bit strange to just be quiet. Hopefully he'll be back for more as it is a slightly weird but very interesting underlying security.
