dedicated crowdfunding account with Term
Deposit (interest rate 4,5%) mirroring projects

14. FriendsClear Regulation frictions
• Regulator remarks (Quiet period)
– No discretionary refusal for loan
– Direct selection
– Risk fully supported by funders
• Modified model
– Discretionary refusal for loan
– « Projects Basket » : choice of a project into a « basket » of
projects
– Capital guarantee by Credit Agricole
• Risk on interest not capital (4,5% default rate OK)
• Double selection process not convergent (timing cycle, criterias,
segment addressed) => not scalable

15. FriendsClear Feedback
• Projects are the product
• Very attractive product (for funders, project owners,
media)
• 2 levels of client involvement
– (Non financial) « contribution » (vote, recommend, virality,
comment)
– Funding
• 2 models of virality
– Ad hoc communities (Social Media)
– Recurrent funding communities
• High impact of funding tools and regulation (client
communication, legal, risk management,…)

16. Clients profiles
16
FundersProject owners
• Emerging phase projects
• Non standard profiles (young, without
experience, professional change,…)
• Small size projects (commerce ambulant,
service à la personne, internet)
• Assessment problem projects (innovation,
unknown indutry)
• Scoring flag projects (excluded industries,
unfilled ratios)
• Risky projects (startup, retournement,...)
• No accounting or bank relationship history
• Equity « Funding gap » (100K€ to 2 M€)
• Bank reluctance
• Internet based quick and packaged (less
paper) process => not in FriendsClear’s
case
• Wide client profiles diversity
• Motivation
• Project support
• Active selection
• High yield
• Transparency / Traceability
• « Power users »
• Favored segment : experienced
executives or managers closed to
retirement

19. Competition vs Complementarity

traditional banks
• Much more complementarity than
competition
