Investing FAQs
What happens if a borrower is late on their payments or defaults on their loan?
goPeer’s collections and recoveries team pursues every single late or defaulted loan to recover as much as possible. We use a variety of methods and technologies that analyze the specific financial situation of each borrower to maximize your recovery.
When a loan defaults and a full recovery becomes less likely, then the loan will be charged-off, and your account will show a total loss of principal on the affected Note. We will however continue to pursue recoveries, so it’s worth remembering that the amount lost on recent defaults may improve over time.
goPeer takes delinquencies and charge-offs very seriously, we invest considerable time to understand and learn from each one, including routine analyses of the data to continuously learn, improve and optimize our underwriting model.
How is goPeer prepared for an economic downturn?
goPeer closely monitors external macroeconomic conditions in addition to the performance of loans. Where signs indicate worsening conditions, we will make credit strategy changes to favor investor yield for new loans.
In addition, we regularly perform stress tests to simulate what could happen to investor returns during difficult periods, for example during an economic downturn. This is just one of many steps we’ve taken as part of a comprehensive, data-driven approach to risk management at goPeer.
What is the minimum investment amount?
There is no minimum investment on the platform, however the Notes issued must be purchased in $10 increments. We do however recommend an initial deposit of at least $1,000 to allow for a diversified portfolio, for example by investing $10 across 100 different loans.
Is the information I share with goPeer secure?
At goPeer privacy and security is very important to us and is something that we take seriously. We operate a digital business within the financial services sector, necessitating increased consideration and scrutiny. Appropriately our platform has been built upon the principals of Security by Design, meaning that it has been designed from the foundation to be secure.
We implement a multi-layered approach to security, with strict constraints and controls in place for each layer to establish a fortified barrier. Among these layers we incorporate specialised security protocols including bank grade or better encryption of data at rest, in motion, and additional public-key (RSA-4096) encryption of sensitive information. The public-key encryption allows a system collecting sensitive data to encrypt and store it, but not retrieve or decrypt it, ensuring that no system or person, including staff, can decipher it, except for the intended system.
As a securities dealer and the first registered consumer peer-to-peer platform in Canada, we are subject to an annual third-party audit. goPeer has retained Stamped, Chartered Professional Accountant Inc. as it’s auditor.
Further details pertaining to the security and privacy of personal data is disclosed within our Privacy Policy.
Can I invest if I’m not Canadian?
You need to be living in Canada and have a Canadian bank account to be able to invest through goPeer.
