Posted in Italy, Prestiamoci, Site Launches on August 19th, 2009 by P2P Lending News – 1 Comment
You might not think the nascent peer-to-peer lending market in Italy has room for another player, but three guys in Milan think otherwise. Prestiamoci, which means “let’s lend to each other” in Italian, is the brainchild of Mariano Carozzi, Paolo Galvani, and Giovanni Tarditi. Carozzi, who was previously a lawyer with online bank Banca Sella, was inspired to start Prestiamoci after finding out about Prosper in the US. He dragged his two banker friends in with him, and in 2007 Prestiamoci was born.
