Carnival of Peer-to-Peer Lending #7 — Rate Cuts Hit Prosper | Moolanomy

“Rate Cuts Hit Prosper” Edition! When I first started investing in Prosper last December, the estimated return for a Conservative Portfolio Plan was 9.20%. Last time I checked, this number was down to 8.00% and it’s even having problem winning bids at this lower rate. I guess this is bad for me, but good for borrowers and the economy.
