Portfolio Manager remains the 2nd\u00a0most popular product with \u20ac258,847, Portfolio Pro follows with \u20ac184,688, and the API trails with \u20ac1,621.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.goandgrow.eu\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Investment-by-product-chart_August.png\" alt=\"Investment by product \u2013 August 2022\" class=\"wp-image-100606\" \/><figcaption><em>Investment by product \u2013 August 2022<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Loan originations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After rebounding in July, loan originations also declined in August, dropping by a modest 6.1% to \u20ac14,405,558. This decrease was mirrored across all three countries. The average interest rate increased from 21.6% to 22.3%\u2014reverting to the same percentage as in June.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Country breakdown<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In July, Spain had the most noticeable growth, but in August, it also had the most significant decrease, dropping by 25.5% to \u20ac 471,777&#8217;s worth of originated loans. It is the market that is most prone to significant changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The 2<sup>nd<\/sup> largest decline came from Finland, dropping by 7.0%. Finland also still has the majority of originations, 57.5%, which equals \u20ac 8,285,382&#8217;s worth of loans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Estonia declined by just 2.5%, accounting for a 39.2% share totaling \u20ac 5,648,399&#8217;s loans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The average Spanish interest rate remained the same. But Estonia&#8217;s average interest rate jumped from 23.9% to 26.2%. In Finland, it decreased from 20.0% to 19.6%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.goandgrow.eu\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Loan-Originations-by-Country_August.png\" alt=\"Origination by country \u2013 August 2022\" class=\"wp-image-100612\" width=\"832\" height=\"159\" \/><figcaption><em>Origination by country \u2013 August 2022<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once again, C-rated loans are the most populated risk-rating category in all our markets. Estonia&#8217;s C-rated share greatly increased from 14.9% to 24.9%. It also increased impressively in Finland\u201443.2% to 51.7%. Because we only originate C-rated loans in Spain, this rating category is identical to the Spanish market&#8217;s performance. It makes up a total of 3.3% of the entire loan portfolio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It seems that in Finland, the growth of C-rated loans meant the decline of D-rated loans, dropping significantly from 12.0% to 3.1%. In Estonia, the 2<sup>nd<\/sup> biggest change was in the B-rated category, dropping from 11.7% to 2.5%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.goandgrow.eu\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Share-by-rating-country-and-amount_August.png\" alt=\"Origination by rating\/country \u2013 August 2022\" class=\"wp-image-100618\" \/><figcaption><em>Origination by rating\/country\u2013 August 2022<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Investments and originations drop mid Q3<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Q3 got off to a good start, but in the 2<sup>nd<\/sup> month, origination and investment figures started to decline moderately, albeit still totaling over \u20ac14M, respectively.
