“PeerBerry’s business is directly dependent on the overall development in international markets and the performance of our business partners. Certain fluctuations in our partners’ needs to borrow through the platform have been earlier. We will also see some changes in the supply of new loans in the future. It is usual in the lending industry. Considering fluctuations in the short-term loans supply, we will seek to offer our investors larger volumes of other types of loans, such as real estate loans and business loans” – explains Arūnas Lekavičius, CEO of PeerBerry.

PeerBerry keeps working on the development of the current business and on the launch of the crowdfunding platform, which is about to start operations before the end of this year.
