Rarely a day goes by without a story about the growth of the online alternative finance market in the UK. In 2015, the market grew by 84% to £3.2 billion, according to a new report published by the Cambridge Centre for Alternative Finance (CCAF).

Already making headlines this year, RateSetter is the leading peer-to-peer lending platform in the UK and has just surpassed the £1billion lending threshold. In this public lecture, RateSetter’s CEO Rhydian Lewis will discuss the rise of peer-to-peer lending and how his platform deals with complex issues such as how the interest rates are set, borrower origination, credit risk modelling and how retail and institutions can co-exist.

The Cambridge Centre for Alternative Finance is an international interdisciplinary academic research institute dedicated to the study of alternative finance.
