Abstract

Private lending is widespread in China, and as a useful and necessary complement to formal finance, it is becoming increasingly important in the country's economic development process. The activity of private lending is in line with the profit-seeking nature of market players, enabling the effective use of a large amount of idle social capital, and temporarily alleviating the contradiction between the high lending threshold of formal financial institutions and the lack of timely satisfaction of the capital needs of small and medium-sized enterprises, which has contributed to the development of diversified financing methods. However, while playing its irreplaceable role, the overheated private lending market may also leave a series of sequelae to China's immature social and economic structure at any time, including the lack of supervision and management mechanisms, insufficient regulation of intermediaries, the risk of disputes and the impact on financial institutions. This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of the legal regulation dilemma of private lending in China, and discusses the path of private lending regulation from the levels of special legislation, perfecting supporting systems, and prudently handling related disputes, in order to achieve the early realization of sunlight, standardization and legalization of private lending.
