Share this investment opportunity with your network Risk summary for P2P agreementsor P2P portfoliosEstimated reading time: 2 minDue to potential for losses, the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) considers thisinvestment to be high risk.What are the key risks?You could lose the money you investMany peer-to-peer (P2P) loans are made to borrowers who can't borrow money from traditionallenders such as banks. These borrowers have a higher risk of not paying you back.Advertised rates of return aren't guaranteed. If a borrower doesn't pay you back as agreed, youcould earn less money than expected. A higher advertised rate of return means a higher risk oflosing your money.These investments can be held in an Innovative Finance ISA (IFISA). An IFISA does not reducethe risk of the investment or protect you from losses, so you can still lose all your money. Itonly means that any potential gains from your investment will be tax free.You are unlikely to get your money back quicklySome P2P loans last for several years. You should be prepared to wait for your money to bereturned even if the borrower repays on time.Some platforms may give you the opportunity to sell your investment early through a 'secondarymarket', but there is no guarantee you will be able to find someone willing to buy.Even if your agreement is advertised as affording early access to your money, you will only getyour money early if someone else wants to buy your loan(s). If no one wants to buy, it could takelonger to get your money back.Don't put all your eggs in one basketPutting all your money into a single business or type of investment for example, is risky.Spreading your money across different investments makes you less dependent on any one to dowell.A good rule of thumb is not to invest more than 10% of your money in high-risk-investments .If the platform fails, it may be impossible for you to collect money on your loan. It couldtake years to get your money back, or you may not get it back at all. Even if the platform hasplans in place to prevent this, they may not work in a disorderly failure.You are unlikely to be protected if something goes wrongThe Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS), in relation to claims against failedregulated firms, does not cover investments in P2P loans. You may be able to claim if youreceived regulated advice to invest in P2P, and the adviser has since failed.
