MORE THAN three quarters (78 per cent) of peer-to-peer investors in Europe made their first investment before the age of 35, a new survey has found. According to research from P2P platform Robo.cash, P2P lending is more popular among younger investors because of its high returns, reliability, ease of use, low minimum deposits and growth potential.

Robo.cash analysts found that just 22 per cent of P2P investors were over the age of 35 when they made their first investment. 28.1 per cent of those surveyed said that they made their first P2P investment between the ages of 24 and 29, while 22.5 per cent were between 30 and 35 when they first invested, and 21.2 per cent were between the ages of 18 and 23.

Just 6.3 per cent made their first P2P investment before the age of 18.
