I appreciate that but question whether it is right??

Really. I though the finance company's were brought down by over lending on second mortgages to questionable property developments.
Consumer credit requires the borrower to either leave the country, go into hiding or declare bankruptcy for the debt to go bad doesn't it?
I will be watching for an increase in consumer default but given share prices also fell during the GFC, the main disadvantage of Harmoney is that the investments are completely illiquid until such time as they introduce secondary market. That is one reason why I favour 3 year loans (over 60% of mine).
