This publication is an open access article. businessperspectives.org Banks and Bank Systems, Volume 11, Issue 4, 2016 Alexander Lavryk (Ukraine) P2P lending as an alternative to bank lending in Ukraine Abstract The goal of the article is to consider peer-to-peer lending and its interaction with bank lending that creates an aggregate hybrid lending. The article’s objective is the research of development of P2P lending on the financial market and beyond, which is particularly relevant today. This goal is achieved by using the methods of evaluation and comparative analysis of different principles, which makes it possible to structure the general scientific understanding of P2P lending with the help of statistical methods. The study of the dynamics and structure of peer-to-peer lending in various coun- tries for the period 2005-2016 led to the conclusion that in Ukraine, there is a decline in the share of bank lending in favor of peer-to-peer lending in the total amount of loans with an increasing role of non-bank and hybrid forms of len- ding in ensuring economic growth.

  • The Impact of Artificial Intelligence on Decision- Making in Venture Capital Firms
    The Impact of Artificial Intelligence on Decision- Making in Venture Capital Firms Christina Schmidt Dissertation written under the supervision of Gonçalo Saraiva Dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment of requirements for the MSc in International Management, at the Universidade Católica Portuguesa, 07.06.2019. Abstract Title: The Impact of Artificial Intelligence on Decision-Making in Venture Capital Firms. Author: Christina Schmidt Keywords: Artificial Intelligence, Venture Capital Industry, Decision-Making Process, Technology This exploratory study examines the opportunity of Artificial Intelligence in the decision-making process of Venture Capitals. Investors have to take decisions under uncertainty, time pressure and suffer from bias. This study investigates the potential of Artificial Intelligence to overcome these challenges and improve the process. The results are based on a qualitative analysis based on 12 interviews with Venture Capitals, AI Experts, and companies offering solutions for Venture Capitals as well as secondary data in form of academic articles and online magazines. The findings reveal that Artificial Intelligence is currently mostly implemented at the beginning of the decision-making process. The usage of Artificial Intelligence improves the process of making decisions by lowering uncertainty, bias and increasing productivity and efficiency. The interviews show that that AI can be implemented in every step in the decision-making process and presents the specific use cases. Furthermore, implementation challenges and implications for practice are outlined. By applying AI, Venture Capitals improve their decision-making process, which ultimately could have a positive impact on the return of their portfolio. Resumo Título: O impacto da Inteligência Artificial no processo de tomada de decisão em empresas de capital de risco.
