Quote from @Chris Seveney: @Kang-Li ChengI cannot comment on this specific company but we buy loans from similar companies (both performing and non performing) and I Can say the consistent component to these companies is they are horrible at underwriting and write loans to collect the points / fees but many of the loans we see we cannot believe they gave that person a loan.I am curious what types of returns they targeted as the invest in one asset model to me is very risky.You can see the target returns to be 10-13%.
