Abstract

Intellectual property (short for IP) pledge and P2P online lending, the two online financing methods, can effectively alleviate the problem of financing the transformation of scientific and technological achievements. It is because they develop the value of the borrower’s intellectual property rights to improve the borrower’s repayment credit. Commonalities between the two determines that IP internet financing platforms should undertake the same statutory obligations to protect lenders and borrowers, information disclosure and most of risk management obligations undertaken by P2P online lending platforms. However, the difference between the two determines that IP internet financing platforms should not undertake the Article 10 of the “Interim Measures for the Management of Business Activities of Online Lending Information Intermediary Institutions”, which prohibits to provide guarantees or promise on principal or interest; to carry out asset securitization, or to engage in equity-based crowdfunding or any other businesses. Whereas they should still undertake the statutory obligation to disclose intellectual property information used for credit enhancement. The essay suggests that the government should cooperate with the China National Intellectual Property Administration to supplement and formulate regulations, based on current ones with P2P online lending, thereby to provide institutional foundation for preventing the risks of IP internet financing, and to ensure its healthy development.
