Welcome to another post from our monthly funding statistics series. Here, we talk about the most popular investment methods used by our customers in February and how this has changed since the previous month.<\/p>\n

Following December and January\u2019s trend, Portfolio Pro has continued to grow in popularity<\/a> and the percentage of investments made through the tool have increased again. Now standing at 42% of the total investments, the Portfolio Manager has decreased in line with this and accounts for 57% of the total, 3% less than December. Look out for our upcoming post on where the highest percentage of investments have been made, breaking it down by country, risk rating and durations.<\/p>\n

The percentage of investments made through the API remained static at 1% of the total, due to the technical skills required for this option we do not expect to see this fluctuate on a monthly basis, as seen with the other investment options.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re still unsure of the differences between each method, here\u2019s a brief summary:<\/p>\n

Portfolio Manager<\/strong> \u2013 Simply select a strategy ranging from ultra-conservative to opportunistic, deposit funds and you\u2019re ready to go. No further management is required as the Portfolio Manager takes care of everything for you. If you want to leave a certain amount of cash on your account that won\u2019t be invested, go in to your settings and adjust the Spare Cash Balance slider to your desired amount. It\u2019s easy!<\/p>\n

Portfolio Pro<\/strong> \u2013 Now you have more control. Select the risk ratings you want to invest in (ranging from AA \u2013 HR), select which countries, your preferred loan durations and it\u2019s done. If you wish, you can also add a few more rules like the range of interest rates applied to the loan and also the bid size. We will then give you an expected return range along with the distribution you can expect across your selected filters.<\/p>\n

API<\/strong><\/a> \u2013 Use your programming skills to access the functionalities of the Bondora platform without using our web interface. The API gives you the ability to bid on specific loans by using different data points such as borrower\u2019s income, country, loan status and many more that fit your personal investment strategy.<\/p>\n
