RBI P2P Audit

Rigorous information security and compliance audits tailored for Peer-to-Peer (P2P) lending platforms. Ensure alignment with the latest RBI NBFC-P2P guidelines.

P2P Compliance

RBI Guidelines for P2P Platforms

Peer-to-Peer lending platforms bridge individual lenders and borrowers. Under the **NBFC-Peer to Peer Lending Platform Directions (2017)**, the **Reserve Bank of India (RBI)** enforces strict limits on maximum credit exposure and demands that platforms do not hold borrower or lender capital directly.

Because P2P systems process sensitive KYC metrics and connect third-party escrow accounts, regular cybersecurity audits are required. We inspect escrow logic, lender match-making flows, loan dashboards, borrower privacy safeguards, and overall system boundaries.
