Yihan Fang of Yirendai commented, "Marketplace lending in China has been growing quite rapidly over the past few years. However, the lack of credit awareness among consumers, insufficient bureau data and incomprehensive credit infrastructure, coupled with an increase of organized fraud, have led to high costs of customer acquisition, anti-fraud operations, and risk management. In the past four years, Yirendai has heavily invested in its technology and built advanced digital capabilities for data collection, anti-fraud intelligence, and online customer acquisition. Today we are sharing these capabilities with our partner companies through YEP which enables them to better serve their customers and manage risks more effectively. With more partners using YEP, together we can better fight organized fraud, lower the costs, and give consumers a much better experience."
