RAR is not showing on my dashboard, just two blank spaces. Is this just me?!

Same, since yesterday.

RAR back just now for me. Still no Export reports

Today is the day for the change to rates etc (3rd August), not changed yet.

I wonder if the server might have to go down and up for the change over?

I wouldn't be surprised if there are few, if any, loans available for a couple of days while they switch over.

Just requested and received an export report.

I guess things didn't go as planned - new loans are still coming through at the old rates...

Harmoney did say that there will be a transition period as loans approved under the old scheme will still be at the old rates. I supposed those applicants may be put into a different grade if they chose to reapply. So, most may not bother?

Harmoney made an announcement confirming that they will release scorecard 1.5 in the next week or so.

Scorecard 1.5 and defaults:

Looking at the actual platform stats i have quickly looked at each grade
https://www.harmoney.co.nz/investors...148.1475453833

then i have worked out charge offs vs total issued and got the following data as the fairly represent actual figures.

EG
A Grade from stats link above
chargeoff $621,621
Total Issued $120,703,450
621621/120703450=0.51%

A=0.51%
B=0.73%
C=2.15%
D=4.9%
E=9.2%
F=15.4%

These actual platform stats differ from the estimated default rates on website

It should also be noted that the new scorecard 1.5 F grades only have a upper estimated default rate of 9.50%.

In summary to me it appears Harmoney used actual stats to refine new scorecard 1.5 grades. This has given us a heap of new grades at lower end and looks like they are going to ditch the higher risk borrowers at other end.

Hopefully they reset the marketplace stats also as the new scorecard will unfairly manipulate the stats data as the old vs new grades are not compatible. A new grade C1 is effectively comparable to an old grade B2.
