Loan origination by grade

78% of the originations in Estonia this month were concentrated among equal representation of C, D and E ratings. The country continues to offer opportunities for those interested in A and AA loans. Estonia’s originations, in total, represent a stronger rating than the totals of those in Finland and Spain.

  • Estonia’s interest rates range from 21-35% in the C-F rating range allowing investors to strike a balance between aggressive return and modulated risk. The E rated originations offer both the highest share of the total and the second highest interest rate.
  • Spain’s originations are almost entirely consolidated to the HR rating and as a result offer the highest interest rate of 121%. Spain’s growing origination share among the other two countries may signal a growing interest by investors in these high-interest, higher risk loans.
  • Finland’s originations gradually increase moving from the B to HR range. The HR loans offer the second highest interest rate of all loans at 95%. Investors looking to mitigate risk will be attracted to the stronger B and C ratings, which show returns of 15% and 21%.
