New And Shiny Collections Statistics
I had proposed a new way to look at collections progress back in early December. This method took to snapshots of Prosper's nightly data export, one month apart, and looked at how the lone status changed over time. I took my first snapshot on December 1, but by some fluke of luck, it turns out that I had the Nov 1 download laying around a second computer, so now we get an early look. The underlying assumption is that if a loan's state does not get worse (as in, going from 1 month late to two months late), some payment must've occurred. So, into the data.
Total | Got Better | The Same | Got Worse | |
Payoff in progress | 28 | 26 92.8% | 0 0.0% | 2 7.1% |
Current | 11697 | 154 1.3% | 11238 96.0% | 305 2.6% |
Late | 252 | 66 26.1% | 40 15.8% | 146 57.9% |
1 month late | 326 | 42 12.8% | 24 7.3% | 260 79.7% |
2 months late | 263 | 13 4.9% | 9 3.4% | 241 91.6% |
3 months late | 231 | 5 2.1% | 9 3.8% | 217 93.9% |
4+ months late | 618 | 6 0.9% | 607 98.2% | 5 0.8% |
These statistics imply better collection performance than the official Penncro numbers that Prosper publishes, but a one month snapshot is insufficient to rule out a statistical anomaly.
Some other notes from the statistics include the 5 "4+ Late Loans" got worse by folks entering bankruptcy and 1 "1 Month Late" loan that was repurchased.
