We're coining a term to describe what we do. It's called social finance. It means we want to improve the tools of financial services--investments, and loans, and so forth--by allowing people to use them to help themselves, and other people, at the same time.

We're coining a term to describe what we do. It's called social finance. It means we want to improve the tools of financial services--investments, and loans, and so forth--by allowing people to use them to help themselves, and other people, at the same time. People have been lending and borrowing money with each other since...well, forever. We tend to call that sharing money. Every bank is about sharing money--your money goes in, they share it with other people, called borrowers. They pay you 2%, then charge them 18%. But it's not very satisfying, since you don't know, and can't say, who you're sharing with. And too much of that money goes to polish all those marble floors. With Zopa, this is all gonna change. We will bring people together online so they can share money, easily, safely, and in a way that's fun and meaningful. Oh, and since there are no big banks involved, with all their extra costs, everybody will get a better deal. And have a chance at their own marble floors. << Less
