yep, RAR and filters stable but cash is growing again!
Indeed, I am too. RAR falling, have had to extract more than half my (peak) funds now, since there has been little opportunity to deploy them on this platform in recent months. Checking it is becoming a waste of time.
Thank you Harmoney and Institutionals for usurping my share...
Having only recently joined Harmoney, I am at a different stage in the cycle than many of the established commenters here. I am so recent I don't even had a RAR yet!
Before investing, I read your whole thread, as I found it to be the most informative and impartial piece of information on HM anywhere on the web. It seems to me also that you guys thought the best days of HM were a few years ago. That's no good to me :rolleyes: but I'll still plough on regardless. Currently reinvesting any interest and principal paid back, checking daily, one $25 note at a time...
Anybody else having login issues this morning? My email & password (saved in LastPass) apparently don't match, and the forgot password page is down.
Edit: Seems it was a very temporary thing, or I hit the end of it. App & website now both working.
Harmoney is proposing a new scorecard (v1.6), got an email yesterday about it. Rates charged to borrowers are much reduced in grades C, D and E, a bit reduced in Bs and Fs, and unchanged in As.
The amount they can borrow will also change: Fs will be able to borrow up to $15k, Es up to $25k, Ds up to $35k, Cs up to $45k, Bs up to $55k and As unchanged at $70k.

New scorecard and details here. HM also says that a new C3 will not be an old C3, hence why the rates were adjusted.
I find the rate drop in Cs and Ds quite drastic - it will be hard to go and chase the 20%+. I guess it depends on an individual investor's strategy. Personally, I was quite content to stay B5 to D3, but to achieve reasonable returns of, say, 17-18%, I will either have to go "deeper" to the mid Es, or to forgo As and Bs and reduce diversification and solely focus on C1 to D5 or thereabouts.
Food for thought...

While I have not enquired for a while, I have not found any NZ P2P providers that accept children. Like you I wanted to invest on behalf. Does anyone have any ideas about WHY the P2P lenders wouldn't accept children? Is there a legal reason? Or is it just a hassle to set up and associate the responsible parent etc? Quite a few managed funds have accepted his money and tax bracket.
Ah, I think you are not comparing to 1.5! The rate reductions are much less... but shows how much times have changed since launch
