Debitum Investments Review

Debitum Investments is a p2p lending platform from Latvia that focues on small and medium enterprises (SME). The platform was founded in 2018. Loan types available are invoice financing, business loans, trade financing and promissory note. The user experience of the platform is outstanding. In general, the technology deployed is innovative and worth a look: decentralized access to the marketplace through the use of blockchain technology, investments can be automatized through an API. Debitum has launched their own DEB token. However, this endeavor so far has been criticized for not providing the returns to investors being promised.

Due Diligence	Available
Debitum checks every loan originator upon onboarding and after that every quarter. The loan originator must provide the cash flow data of all loans. That includes interest rates, term, payment schedule, commissions and others. The loans data is analyzed along with the overall loan originator's financial data for the last three years. Debitum then evaluates whether there are no collection issues that would be reflected on the loan book, investigates extraordinary loans, measures the stability of the portfolio, and performs stress tests on the financials of the loan originator. Finally, Debitum follows up questions with the loan originator. The loan originator ultimately must be capable to uphold the buyback guarantees towards the investors.
