China Rapid Finance began operations in 2001.  During our 15-year history, the company developed a proprietary, advanced technology that has been used to analyze Chinese consumer credit, for China’s largest financial institutions, and beginning in 2010, on behalf of the lenders and borrowers who participate in our marketplace lending platform. While providing services to financial institutions, China Rapid Finance helped companies issue approximately 100 million credit cards to Chinese consumers. Since 2010, China Rapid Finance’s management team has applied its intimate knowledge of China’s credit market to develop predictive selection, credit scoring and automated decisioning technologies to create a sophisticated and advanced marketplace lending platform.
