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.

‘The pre-Industrial Revolution, 1500–1700’ uses the cloth industry in Witney, a small Oxfordshire market town, as an example of the many themes of both the pre- and main Industrial Revolution. During the Industrial Revolution, the technology changed and so did the organization of work, but these changes did not benefit the workforce. Despite the decline in employment and real wages, the woven blanket industry remained the economic basis of the town for two more centuries. England’s success in the global economy had important effects beyond the growth of cities and rural manufacturing. These include the agricultural revolution, the coal revolution, the high wage economy, and the expansion of literacy.

In the era of digital economic development, the community continues to innovate in terms of providing lending and borrowing services. One form of development of Financial Technology (fintech) is the distribution of funds through the Peer to Peer (P2P) Lending system. Where this system has more or less the same role as banks, namely as an organizer; from parties who have funds (investors) to those who need funds (debtors) whose methods are carried out online. The distribution of funds through the P2P Lending system has developed rapidly in Indonesia. In carrying out its business, the loan and loan service provider uses an electronic system that is a series of electronic devices and procedures that function to disseminate information in the field of financial services. The electronic system can also be referred to as Artificial Intelligence (AI). By using AI, loan and loan service providers can find out all the debtor's personal data, where in the end the debtor becomes disadvantaged because his personal rights are violated. On the other hand there are no legal provisions in Indonesia that can protect debtors in this regard. So that in this study later will discuss about the extent of legal arrangements related to the protection of debtors in the P2P Lending system using AI. This research uses the statute approach method; namely the approach through legislation and conceptual approach, namely the legal approach through the concepts and opinions of legal experts.

AbstractThe growth of information technology or commonly referred to as Industrial Revolution 4.0 has given birth to a new idea namely Money Lending and Borrowing Services based on Information Technology. Peer to Peer Lending (P2P) Lending is a service that is much in demand by the public. The majority of P2P Lending financial technology providers do not require collateral. With this condition, OJK has issued a special regulation, namely POJK No. 77 / POJK.01 / 2016 concerning Money Lending and Borrowing Services based on Information Technology. Article 21 POJK No.77 / POJK.01/2016 states that the Operator is required to manage credit risk and operational risk. One risk management undertaken by the Provider is to use Credit Scoring to classify Debtors into certain risk grades. However, because the majority of P2P Lending does not require a material guarantee, the Credit Scoring factor other than collateral becomes very important. In practice, the Operator is often less selective about the classification of Debtors in Credit Scoring, resulting in many defaults.Keywords: Peer to Peer Lending; Financial Technology; Credit Scoring; Risk Grade.AbstrakPerkembangan teknologi informasi informasi atau yang biasa disebut dengan Revolusi Industri 4.0 telah melahirkan gagasan baru yaitu Layanan Meminjam Uang Berbasis Teknologi Informasi. Peer to Peer Lending (P2P) Lending menjadi layanan yang banyak diminati oleh masyarakat. Dari beragam Penyelenggara teknologi finansial P2P Lending mayoritas tidak mensyaratkan adanya jaminan kebendaan. Dengan adanya kondisi tersebut OJK telah mengeluarkan aturan khusus yaitu POJK No. 77/POJK.01/2016 tentang Layanan Pinjam Meminjam Uang Berbasis Teknologi Informasi. Pasal 21 POJK No.77/POJK.01/2016 menyatakan Penyelenggara wajib melakukan manajemen risiko kredit dan risiko operasional. Salah satu manajemen risiko yang dilakukan Penyelenggara adalah menggunakan Credit Scoring untuk mengklasifikasi Debitor ke dalam risk grade tertentu. Meskipun demikian karena mayoritas P2P Lending tidak mensyaratkan adanya jaminan kebendaan, maka faktor Credit Scoring selain jaminan menjadi sangat penting. Pada prakteknya Penyelenggara seringkali kurang selektif terhadap klasifikasi Debitor dalam Credit Scoring sehingga banyak terjadi wanprestasi.
