Body
FinTechs belonging to this category act as a loan creditor (even short and very short-term loans), are broking loans or receivables or conduct factoring of loans, which were given to private or business customers. In this business area you also find “peer-to-peer” (P2P) services, in which FinTechs enable a multitude of users to give loans (and brokered by the FinTech-platform) to other users or companies.
Finetrading is hereby a financial service of FinTechs, where they buy due receivables and grant the debtor an extension of payment time.
As an ancillary service some FinTechs offer alternative credit assessment services to check the solvency of a borrower.

We count with loan service, factoring and solvency borrower service providers. There is enough space for new providers. The regulatory authorities (mainly SBS) support technological solutions that increase financial inclusion, as long as providers respect existing licensing and supervision rules. New credit assessment models and digital factoring platforms are seen as promising tools.
