(Free RM30 after first deposit of RM1k) WHAT IS FUNDING SOCIETIES? They're a Peer 2 Peer Lending Platform which connects SME’s who are in need of an injection of cash in the form of a loan and investors like us who want to put our money to work. Funding Societies is a middleman, providing the platform to connect us both. They also do the necessary due diligence, collections, and follow ups on the SME’s needing the loan so us investors have our best interests protected. It's now a new business model, and it's something that’s available in many countries around the world. Even in Malaysia, there are a few other P2P platforms but FS is the most established and has the largest market share. HOW DOES FUNDING SOCIETIES WORK? We investors get interest on the amount of money we’ve decided to “invest” in these loans. I wouldn’t classify this as a standard investment per se because we’re getting profits from contributing to these loans, rather than ownership of an asset. Basically the SME’s gotta pay a certain interest rate to us for providing them the loan. WHAT INVESTMENTS DOES FUNDING SOCIETIES PROVIDE? There are 4 different types of loans fund: i. Business Term - a standard loan to run day to day operations ii. Accounts Receivable - paying a company while they’re waiting for payment from their customers iii. Accounts Payable - helping them fund purchases that the company requires iv. Guaranteed Investment notes - guaranteed by a third party, meaning that if the company doesn’t pay you, the third party will IS FUNDING SOCIETIES RISKY OR SAFE? Like any other investments out there, there are risks associated with debt investing. Since we’re funding the loans of these SME’s, if they fail to pay it back due to poor business performance or whatever reason, we will lose whatever capital we have exposed. Based on my experience, there will be scenarios where the company isn’t performing as well as they hope to be. In most cases, they just pay it slightly late or restructure the loan to a longer tenure but up the interest rate payable. Funding Societies manages all of this and keeps you updated on all payments, which is one of the values they provide being the middleman. In some cases though, the company goes bankrupt and the loan goes into default. In this scenario, we will lose our capital and it's the risk associated with this investment.
