Many lenders use this data in their decisions on whether to lend to borrowers.
There are many factors taken into account when assigning a risk rating, including:
All borrowers are carefully reviewed and assessed before they are allowed to list loan requests on the website. Only borrowers that we determine to be creditworthy are allowed to borrow through us.
The risk ratings range from A to D, where A is lowest risk. Please see the How it works page for more information on how our risk rating is set.
