This podcast dives into the Reserve Bank of India’s updated guidelines for NBFC peer-to-peer (P2P) lending platforms, announced in August 2024. The episode unpacks how these new rules aim to reshape the P2P lending landscape—making it safer, more transparent, and investor-centric.

Listeners will hear about major changes, including:

1. The ban on promising guaranteed returns or easy liquidity, pushing platforms to clarify the genuine risks involved.

2. The prohibition of cross-selling unrelated products, such as insurance linked to loans, ensuring platforms focus directly on lending activities.

3. Stricter lender-borrower matching and operational transparency, with monthly disclosures on default rates and all fees.

4. Lending exposure limits for individuals, and new compliance requirements for lenders with larger investments.

5. Mandatory fund transfers through segregated accounts, faster settlements (T+1 rule), and complete removal of cash handling.

6. The end of secondary loan markets, meaning loans cannot be sold before maturity.

This podcast explains how these regulatory moves enhance investor protection by eliminating misleading marketing and risky practices, but also reduce flexibility and predictability for lenders. Tune in to learn how responsible participation, transparency, and compliance are shaping the future of P2P lending in India—so you can make informed choices in this evolving alternative finance sector.
