Meanwhile, Zopa – the world’s first online peer-to-peer lending marketplace – passes the £50 million of loans milestone and does 40% of that in just this year alone. Compared to the banks the numbers are of course tiny, but the pace of growth is quite remarkable.
Could Zopa become the first real competitive pressure banks feel to put their customers more at the centre of what they do. Order cheap flagyl er, I think so. And that would be good for all of us – even ultimately the banks themselves. Imagine a world in which people liked their bank...
But when I have suggested this to one or two bankers in charge of strategy for a couple of the big banks, they laugh – out loud.
They are amused because in their eyes, peer-to-peer finance is so small, they think it doesn’t even warrant thinking about. When I made the point that P2P finance is growing fast and that every new phenomena had to start somewhere (iPods etc) there is a chilling response, order cheap flagyl er. In hushed, conspiratorial tones they say, “If Zopa ever gets big enough to matter, we will just undercut it on price for as long as it takes to kill it off, then get back to normal. Simple.”
As memories of British Airways v Laker and then Virgin Atlantic come rushing back, I feel room for optimism by remembering another new kid on the block, much closer to Zopa in many ways, and one that every big retailer laughed at in their early years – eBay.
It took them many years, but they have now not only revolutionised the second hand goods industry, they are the largest retailer in the world.
Maybe those bankers are laughing just a little too loudly...

What do you propose as the solution to the shrinkage of the money supply if Zopa lenders replaced all bank loans? Perhaps lending via Zopa should be banned during times of fiscal easing?
How can I effectively leverage my lending via Zopa?
Zopa is innovative in one very relevant way: it’s not doing the lending so the loans don’t show up in its own books and bad debt can’t quickly make Zopa insolvent. That’s also a structural vulnerability, since Zopa in theory could manipulate acceptance criteria without direct financial cost. With no external auditing and reporting on this to lenders the risk will remain, so eventually there will be some lender-visible external auditing to counter this risk. It can wait a while, Zopa is still in the early days with high reputational risk for getting it wrong. Though the historic bad debt experience in C60 could have attracted more adverse publicity than it did, so this control may not be as effective as it could be yet.
