History
Founded in December 2013 in Berlin, Lendico's idea was to take to Germany, and to all of Europe, a lending model that was successful in the United States, peer to peer lending, or lending between people.
Inspired by the business model of the US peer-to-peer lending platform
Business Model
The loans are personal loans or SME loans and range between €1,000 - €150,000 in Germany.[16] The interest fee is calculated on the basis of the borrower’s credit score, credit history, desired loan amount and the borrower’s debt-to-income ratio.[17] Lendico determines whether the borrower is creditworthy and assigns to its approved loans a credit grade that determines the payable interest rate and the fees. The loan period can range between 1 and 5 years and be repaid at any time.[17] Only 10% of applications are received on the platform.[18]
Lendico operates completely online with no branch network and relies on proprietary technology to reduce costs and optimize the handling of loan applications. Lendico has repeatedly been nominated as best credit marketplace.[19] In August 2015 Deutsche Börse Venture Network selected Lendico to become member of its programme of growth companies and national and international investors.[20]
