However, the development of internet financing has also created some additional risks within the financial market. This chapter provides a literature review of the internet finance in China, particularly focusing on the discussion of online P2P lending and its contribution to business advancement. Meanwhile, it also reviews the previous literature on P2P lending in the United States and the United Kingdom.
