“Can a P2P lending marketplace become the lowest-cost business credit channel for Brazilian SMBs by connecting them directly with retail and institutional investors?”
Biva operates as a peer-to-peer lending marketplace focused on the Brazilian SMB market, positioning itself as a low-cost alternative to traditional bank credit. The platform allows collective lending ('Empréstimo Coletivo') where multiple investors fund individual SMB loans, promoting shared-economy finance. The company has built a partners portal to expand reach through referral networks, incentivizing introducers with commissions of up to R$2,500 per funded loan.
