How do we counter inflation by purchasing of receivables

Nobody likes the word inflation. We all know that it is the main reason that our savings, even though they might be significant now, will have a lower purchasing power in a few years. Particularly unfair is the ratio between the inflation rate and the expected annual return rate on bank add fundss, which at the moment is in favour of inflation. This means that each subsequent year our money stays in a bank will significantly reduce the volume of affordable goods and services. All this makes the bank add funds as a means to increase our savings less useful. This is where receivables come into play as one of the best methods to counteract inflation.

High-Risk Receivables

If you already have the experience, you could try purchasing of receivables in stock markets, mutual funds or in different types of assets – such as stocks, bonds, real estate, or gold. However, this requires a lot of expertise and strategic thinking, as well as a huge amount of patience. Turning profits can take time and almost always involves high risk.

Low-risk receivables

In the absence of serious experience, we recommend purchasing of receivables in P2P as one of the ways to overcome long-term inflation. This way you will also “lock” your savings for a certain amount of time, but unlike the add funds, if all goes well, at the end of the adventure profitability will have outpaced inflation. In the worst case, you will have your initial receivable back because of the existing buy-back guarantee provided by the P2P originators that protects your money. And if you want to “unlock” your receivable in the meantime, you can list it on the Secondary Market.

Automatic P2P Portfolio

If you choose iuvo, you should know that the risk level of this type of receivable can be minimized by selecting an automatic portfolio, which means that the portal itself can allocate your savings to different types of credits and risk levels. The various filter combinations offered by iuvo allow you to build a portfolio that is tailored to your profile and is within your personal receivable style. This will also save you time since you no longer need to manually select credits and work on a specific strategy.
