Research of gender effect on funding success in peer-to-peer lending markets demonstrates that gender discrimination is a platform-specific phenomenon rather than a common feature. Can we get a similar conclusion about the relationship between gender and credit risk? How do gender differences affect default risk? We try to answer this question using the data of the largest peer-to-peer lending platform RenRenDai spanning from March 2016 to September 2016. In order to avoid the endogeneity problem, this paper first uses the instrumental variable method to conduct a baseline Probit model estimate connecting gender difference to the default rate with several borrowers’ individual characteristics under control. Then the original Probit model and a propensity score matching method aiming to eliminate the effects of divergent observable characteristics are applied to test the robustness of the outcome. Both the baseline estimation and the robustness test show that there is no significant gender effect on the probability of default, ceteris paribus. Therefore, borrowers’ gender is not a good screening device for the P2P lending platform to control the credit risk; other factors should be taken into account to reduce the non-performing loan rate. However, since this paper only investigates the situation of RenRenDai and the data we use is limited, we should be very careful to generalize our findings to other P2P lending platforms. More research on different P2P lending platforms in different regulatory regimes is in necessity

This article discusses how the sudden shift in policy reform and innovation has the potential to liberate the financial markets. The economic potential of internet finance is beginning to take hold across the capital markets as industries like Peer – to – Peer Lending, Equity and Debt based Crowdfunding and virtual currencies and cryptocurrencies which are types of digital currency are quickly transforming the way businesses are being financed. From borrowing and lending, buying and selling securities, to conducting wire transfers internationally, these innovations are creating a new class and generation of investors will source investments opportunities. Helping institutions and governments assess risks and manage performance in order to determine where to deploy capital; and showing signs of lessening the inequality gap. Following the neolithic agricultural revolution and the industrial revolution, this new revolution will enable more people to access financial services in less traditional ways, especially the unbanked world with its huge potential. These new financial opportunities, such as peer – to - peer (P2P) lending, will be discussed and examined, and we will stress how they can allow people to bypass current barriers in the global economy. We conclude by arguing that all these developments, energized by the efforts of innovators and entrepreneurs, have the potential to radically transform the world in which we live, while promoting the core values of industrialized societies including democracy, capital formation, sustainability, and equality without solely relying on tax increases.
