I am 28 years old and I am searching for good investment options. I just came to know about peer to peer lending as an emerging platform in India and wanted your views on that.
Hi Vikas,
Good to know that you are interested in investment options. I would like to tell you that peer to peer lending is very risky so it really depends on your appetite of risk. I personally do not like it.
Thanks
