An article was published by GUO Xiaoshuang (Sunny Guo), SBC’s lecturer, as co-authorin a global academic journal The North American Journal of Economics and Finance.
The article Can individual investors learn from experience in online P2P lending? Evidence from China explores the relationship between investor performance and experience in online P2P lending with an account-level dataset from a large Chinese online peer-to-peer (P2P) lending platform. The empirical results show that P2P investors learn rationally in two ways: the first way is by learning about their ability; the second way is by learning to improve their performance.
