P2P or peer-to-peer file sharing is highly decentralized online methods where we can create a network of linked users. P2P file sharing methods allow users to download files to their computers and make them available for other users to download from their computers. Peer-to-peer networking involves computer software to communicate without a central server. P2P services are being used not only for file sharing and storing, also for lending a money. It is one of the growing systems where peers would find less pressure borrowing from each other. Google is teming up with one of the largest P2P lenders investing $125 million in Lending Club where borrowers and investors get together outside the banking system (Kaufman). According to the article written by Wendy Kaufman, Google's move to invest on peer-to-peer lending reflects a growing interest of other major players in P2P lending. This service is much easier and convenient to borrow a money from investors than third players like banks.
