Kevin Singh | borrower The people who run ThinCats implement innovations to their offerings and systems regularly and do not appear to have run out of ideas. Alan John | lender Member of the peer to peer finance association ThinCats are proud to be a member of the Peer to Peer Finance Association, the industry association which represent debt based alternative finance providers operating electronic platforms. P2PFA membership covers over 95% of the peer to peer lending market. The P2PFA work closely with their members to help with the transition into the new FCA regulatory regime. Risk warning - please read Investment with ThinCats involves making secured loans to small and medium sized businesses and like all investments that involves some risk. Unlike other types of investment the value of your investment will not go down or up in value depending upon the performance of financial markets. You will never receive more back than the interest that has been agreed and you should not receive any less. The principal reason that you may not get all of your money back is if the borrower fails to repay as agreed and while loan default rates in the sector have so far been low, you may not get all your money back when you lend on a p2p lending platform. More information about managing the risks involved with lending on ThinCats is available by clicking here. Please note we are not covered by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme. Instead the FCA requires peer to peer platforms to hold a capital buffer and have robust plans to run off outstanding loans should any platform fail.
