In the second quarter of 2020, the operational business started with the purchase of merchant receivables, allowing their customers to pay for purchases 30 days later or in up to three instalments.<\/p>\r\n<p>In January 2021, the company applied for a creditor license, which the Estonian Financial Supervision Authority granted in August 2021. A few days later, the company was renamed &#8220;Modena Estonia O\u00dc&#8221;. The first consumer loans were issued in December 2021.<\/p>\r\n<p>In 2024, Modena advanced its plans for launching a P2P lending platform and prepared the necessary infrastructure to resell its claims to external investors. Following an internal testing phase at the end of 2024, the platform went live for investors at the beginning of 2025.<\/p>\r\n<h3><strong>Business Model<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n<p>How does Modena make money? Unlike classic P2P marketplaces, there are no brokerage fees charged to external loan originators. Modena earns from its own lending business and from the margin on the sale of the claims.<\/p>\r\n<p>According to the platform, the income from the lending business comes from four sources: interest and contract fees on consumer loans (19% to 35% APR), interest and contract fees on business loans (16% to 25%), merchant fees on BNPL contracts (25% to 90%, borne by the merchant), and transaction fees from payment services for merchants (\u20ac0.05 to \u20ac0.50 per transaction).<\/p>\r\n<p>The business model is now largely funded through the platform itself. Of the total outstanding loan portfolio of \u20ac8.7 million, around \u20ac7.5 million has been sold to investors on Modena (September 2026).<\/p>\r\n<h3>Modena News<\/h3>\r\n<p>P2P lending is a dynamic asset class where investors should stay continuously informed.

There is no individual loan selection, no Auto Invest in the classic sense and no secondary market.<\/p>\r\n<h3><strong>The Loan Offering<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n<p>Modena issues loans exclusively in Estonia. Through the vaults, investors automatically receive fractions of a pool of consumer loans, credit lines, refinancing loans and BNPL receivables.<\/p>\r\n<p>According to the platform, the borrowers are predominantly Estonian private individuals and small and medium-sized enterprises between 25 and 60 years of age. The average loan amounts range from \u20ac500 to \u20ac15,000 for consumers and from \u20ac10,000 to \u20ac50,000 for businesses. According to the annual report, the contractual interest rates range between 8.9% and 38.5% per year.<\/p>\r\n<p>Important for context: investors always acquire only a fraction of a claim and therefore do not become the sole creditor of the borrower. The assignment agreement explicitly states that the acquired claim does not rank ahead of the claims of other creditors under the same loan agreement.<\/p>\r\n<h3>Dynamic Vault and Growth Vault<\/h3>\r\n<p>Modena currently offers two investment products, each with a different strength.<\/p>\r\n<p>The <strong>Dynamic Vault<\/strong> is designed for liquidity. Modena states an expected return of more than 7.9% with a minimum holding period of just one day. Withdrawal requests are processed as a buyback, while the money is usually available the following day. However, this timeframe is not contractually guaranteed, more on that in the section on the secondary market.<\/p>\r\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/rethink-p2p.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Modena-Erfahrungen-Kredite-Modena-Review-Vault-Modena-Opiniones-Dynamic-Vault-Modena-Avis-Growth-Vault.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-38544 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/rethink-p2p.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Modena-Erfahrungen-Kredite-Modena-Review-Vault-Modena-Opiniones-Dynamic-Vault-Modena-Avis-Growth-Vault.png\" alt=\"Modena-Review-Dynamic-Vault-Growth-Vault\" width=\"926\" height=\"474\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/rethink-p2p.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Modena-Erfahrungen-Kredite-Modena-Review-Vault-Modena-Opiniones-Dynamic-Vault-Modena-Avis-Growth-Vault.png 926w, https:\/\/rethink-p2p.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Modena-Erfahrungen-Kredite-Modena-Review-Vault-Modena-Opiniones-Dynamic-Vault-Modena-Avis-Growth-Vault-300x154.png 300w, https:\/\/rethink-p2p.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Modena-Erfahrungen-Kredite-Modena-Review-Vault-Modena-Opiniones-Dynamic-Vault-Modena-Avis-Growth-Vault-768x393.png 768w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 926px) 100vw, 926px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 926px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 926\/474;\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-38544\" src=\"https:\/\/rethink-p2p.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Modena-Erfahrungen-Kredite-Modena-Review-Vault-Modena-Opiniones-Dynamic-Vault-Modena-Avis-Growth-Vault.png\" alt=\"Modena-Review-Dynamic-Vault-Growth-Vault\" width=\"926\" height=\"474\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rethink-p2p.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Modena-Erfahrungen-Kredite-Modena-Review-Vault-Modena-Opiniones-Dynamic-Vault-Modena-Avis-Growth-Vault.png 926w, https:\/\/rethink-p2p.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Modena-Erfahrungen-Kredite-Modena-Review-Vault-Modena-Opiniones-Dynamic-Vault-Modena-Avis-Growth-Vault-300x154.png 300w, https:\/\/rethink-p2p.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Modena-Erfahrungen-Kredite-Modena-Review-Vault-Modena-Opiniones-Dynamic-Vault-Modena-Avis-Growth-Vault-768x393.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 926px) 100vw, 926px\" \/><\/noscript><\/a><\/p>\r\n<p>The <strong>Growth Vault<\/strong> offers the higher return with a target of more than 9.5%, but locks up the capital for one year.<\/p>\r\n<p>A minimum investment of \u20ac50 applies to both vaults.<\/p>\r\n<h3><strong>Costs and Fees<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n<p>According to the published <a href=\"https:\/\/modena.capital\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/price-list.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">price list<\/a>, Modena has not charged any fees for account management, deposits or withdrawals since 1 January 2024. Therefore, there are currently no costs for investors.<\/p>\r\n<p>The assignment agreement, however, contains two types of fees that Modena can introduce with 30 days&#8217; notice. Firstly, a &#8220;platform fee&#8221;, which is withheld as a percentage of each debtor&#8217;s payment, and secondly an &#8220;inactivity fee&#8221;. The latter would be charged monthly if an investor no longer holds any claims but still has a balance in the account.<\/p>\r\n<h3><strong>Return<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n<p>The homepage advertises an annual return of up to 11%. This maximum return can be achieved by using the Growth Vault.<\/p>\r\n<blockquote>\r\n<p>The actual discount rate depends on the actual claim, but on average investors can expect a return of around 10% p.a.<\/p>\r\n<\/blockquote>\r\n<p>On the platform&#8217;s own statistics page (September 2026), an average annualised return of 9.31% is reported, calculated on the basis of the last three months.<\/p>\r\n<h3>Buyback Guarantee<\/h3>\r\n<p>As with many other P2P lending platforms, Modena also has a buyback mechanism. If a borrower falls into arrears, Modena can buy back the affected claim from the investor. According to the platform, this happens after 35 to 90 days depending on the contract type, while the assignment agreement already permits a buyback from more than 30 days. The buyback is serviced directly from Modena&#8217;s own balance sheet.<\/p>\r\n<p>The assignment agreement communicates further details on the buyback. It makes clear that the buyback is a right and not an obligation on Modena&#8217;s side. In this case, the buyback price amounts to at least 75% of the outstanding principal.<\/p>\r\n<p>The same floor of 75% also applies in three further cases: if the investor revokes the power of attorney granted to Modena, in the event of an early termination of the agreement, and if an authority or applicable law requires it. Investors only receive 100% of the outstanding principal if Modena exercises the buyback at its own discretion.<\/p>\r\n<p>Investors should bear in mind that the exercise of the buyback is directly tied to the creditworthiness of Modena Estonia O\u00dc. Modena states the average buyback rate over the last twelve months at 1.96%.<\/p>\r\n<h3>Auto Invest and Secondary Market<\/h3>\r\n<p>There is no Auto Invest feature on Modena in the classic sense, nor is one required. The vaults handle allocation, diversification and reinvestment fully automatically. Which specific claims are allocated is decided by Modena at its own discretion.<\/p>\r\n<p>A special feature of the platform is the automatic payout. Using a slider, investors can define what share of the monthly earnings is transferred to their own bank account, while the rest remains invested. The payout takes place on the third business day of the following month.<\/p>\r\n<p>There is no secondary market on Modena. Under the contractual framework, investors may only sell their claims back to Modena and may neither transfer nor pledge them otherwise. To do so, the investor submits a sell order and states the amount they wish to receive. Modena reviews this order within 14 calendar days and has the right to execute it in full, in part or not at all.<\/p>\r\n<hr \/>\r\n<h2><strong>Modena Taxes<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n<p>Generally, interest income generated through loan financing is considered capital income and thus must be declared as such in the tax return.<\/p>\r\n<p>Estonia does not levy withholding tax on the interest paid out by Modena. Investors therefore receive their earnings gross and are themselves responsible for declaring them in their country of residence. Compared with platforms from Latvia or Lithuania, where withholding tax is retained, this is a structural advantage.<\/p>\r\n<p>For the tax return, Modena provides earnings and cash flow statements as well as a dedicated tax report in the portal, which can be filtered by vault and period and exported.<\/p>\r\n<hr \/>\r\n<h2>Modena Risk<\/h2>\r\n<p>The main risk with Modena is the concentration on a single company, as the platform, the lender and the buyback counterparty are identical. On top of that come an unregulated investment product and a lack of segregation of investor funds.<\/p>\r\n<h3>Platform Risk<\/h3>\r\n<p>The operational launch of the investment platform, which is operated by the Estonian company &#8220;Modena Estonia O\u00dc&#8221;, took place at the beginning of 2025. In its domestic market, the company is supervised by the Estonian Financial Supervision Authority (Finantsinspektsioon).<\/p>\r\n<div class=\"ss-box\">\n  <div class=\"ss-head\">\n    <div class=\"ss-head-left\">\n      <div class=\"ss-title\">Safety Score<\/div>\n      <div class=\"ss-rank\">Rank 18 of 31<\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"ss-head-right\">\n      <span class=\"ss-score\" style=\"color:#EF9F27\">5.6<\/span>\n      <span class=\"ss-of10\">\/ 10<\/span>\n      <span class=\"ss-pill ss-pill--mid\">Medium Risk<\/span>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n  <div class=\"ss-cats\">\n    <div class=\"ss-cat\">\n      <span class=\"ss-cat-name\">Regulation and Licensing<\/span>\n      <div class=\"ss-cat-bar\"><\/div>\n      <span class=\"ss-cat-pts\">0 \/ 15<\/span>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"ss-cat\">\n      <span class=\"ss-cat-name\">Financial Stability<\/span>\n      <div class=\"ss-cat-bar\"><div class=\"ss-bar--g\" style=\"width:75%\"><\/div><\/div>\n      <span class=\"ss-cat-pts\">15 \/ 20<\/span>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"ss-cat\">\n      <span class=\"ss-cat-name\">Transparency and Disclosure<\/span>\n      <div class=\"ss-cat-bar\"><div class=\"ss-bar--y\" style=\"width:53%\"><\/div><\/div>\n      <span class=\"ss-cat-pts\">8 \/ 15<\/span>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"ss-cat\">\n      <span class=\"ss-cat-name\">Loan Portfolio and Investor Losses<\/span>\n      <div class=\"ss-cat-bar\"><div class=\"ss-bar--g\" style=\"width:100%\"><\/div><\/div>\n      <span class=\"ss-cat-pts\">25 \/ 25<\/span>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"ss-cat\">\n      <span class=\"ss-cat-name\">Track Record and Crisis Behaviour<\/span>\n      <div class=\"ss-cat-bar\"><div class=\"ss-bar--r\" style=\"width:32%\"><\/div><\/div>\n      <span class=\"ss-cat-pts\">8 \/ 25<\/span>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n  <details class=\"ss-rf\">\n    <summary class=\"ss-rf-toggle\">\n      <span class=\"ss-rf-toggle-label\">Red Flags <span class=\"ss-rf-badge ss-rf-badge--ok\">0<\/span><\/span>\n      <span class=\"ss-rf-chevron\"><\/span>\n    <\/summary>\n    <div class=\"ss-rf-body\">\n      <p class=\"ss-rf-none\">No Red Flags present.<\/p>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/details>\n  <div class=\"ss-note\">\n    The Safety Score assesses platform risk only.

This license covers the issuance of consumer loans and primarily serves consumer protection and anti-money laundering on the borrower side. It does not provide any investor protection.<\/p>\r\n<p>Modena itself provides the reasoning for this. The company is neither a crowdfunding platform nor a deposit-taking institution. Instead, investors acquire claims that originate from Modena and belong to Modena, which is why a crowdfunding license under EU law is not required. The assignment agreement and the legal notice on the website also point out that the contractual relationship is not to be interpreted as crowdfunding, deposit-taking, a payment service or an investment service.<\/p>\r\n<p>For investors, this means that there is no entitlement to compensation through an investor compensation scheme, that there are no regulatory compliance and transparency standards enforced for the investment product, and that there is no obligation to publish audited annual reports.<\/p>\r\n<h4><strong>Segregation of Funds and Deposit Protection<\/strong><\/h4>\r\n<p>The homepage advertises that investor funds are held in segregated accounts. On closer inspection, the situation looks somewhat different.<\/p>\r\n<p>The account holder is Modena Estonia O\u00dc itself, meaning the same company that sells the claims. As soon as an investor deposits money, claims are allocated to them almost immediately, so that legally the funds are replaced by the ownership of those claims. What remains attributable to the investor is only the deposited but not yet invested balance, which Modena puts at 2% to 4% of the capital. A dedicated bank account is used for this share, but according to Modena there are no further legal safeguards in place.<\/p>\r\n<p>The reasoning behind this is remarkably candid: together with lawyers, the company examined various structures but always arrived at the same conclusion, namely that Modena, as the commissioning party of all service agreements, could also circumvent any protective structure it set up itself. Rather than a solution that looks good on paper but offers no actual protection, the company decided against it. Investors are advised not to leave balances sitting unused anyway.<\/p>\r\n<p>This reasoning is understandable and more honest than what is stated on the homepage. The consequence remains the same: a segregation of funds in the sense of investor protection does not exist at Modena.<\/p>\r\n<p>In addition, the investments offered via Modena are not covered by a national or European deposit protection scheme. Investors should therefore be aware that the invested capital is subject to a real risk of loss, that returns are not guaranteed, and that they may not get back the full invested amount.<\/p>\r\n<hr \/>\r\n<h3>Financial Stability<\/h3>\r\n<p>The financial stability of a P2P platform is a key risk factor. Can Modena already operate profitably? And what conclusions can be drawn from the balance sheet?<\/p>\r\n\t<div class=\"rtp-quellenbox\">\n\t\t<div class=\"rtp-grid\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"rtp-col\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"rtp-icon rtp-blue\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"18\" height=\"18\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" stroke=\"currentColor\" stroke-width=\"2\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\"><path d=\"M12 17V3\"\/><path d=\"m6 11 6 6 6-6\"\/><path d=\"M19 21H5\"\/><\/svg><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"rtp-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"rtp-label\">Annual Report<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"rtp-desc\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"rtp-link\" href=\"https:\/\/rethink-p2p.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Modena_Estonia_OU_Annual_Report_2025.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tModena Estonia O\u00dc \u2013 Annual Report 2025\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class=\"rtp-vdivider\"><\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"rtp-col\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"rtp-icon rtp-yellow\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"18\" height=\"18\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" stroke=\"currentColor\" stroke-width=\"2\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\"><path d=\"M12 22s8-4 8-10V5l-8-3-8 3v7c0 6 8 10 8 10\"\/><\/svg><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"rtp-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"rtp-label\">Auditor: Audit Advisory O\u00dc<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"rtp-desc\">Regulated audit firm.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"rtp-vdivider\"><\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"rtp-col\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"rtp-icon rtp-yellow\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"18\" height=\"18\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" stroke=\"currentColor\" stroke-width=\"2\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\"><circle cx=\"12\" cy=\"12\" r=\"10\"\/><path d=\"m9 12 2 2 4-4\"\/><\/svg><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"rtp-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"rtp-label\">Standard: Estonian GAAP<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"rtp-desc\">Local standard, not internationally comparable.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t<style>\n\t.rtp-quellenbox {\n\t\tbackground: #F8F8F6;\n\t\tborder: 1px solid #e5e5e5;\n\t\tborder-radius: 12px;\n\t\tpadding: 20px 24px;\n\t\twidth: 100%;\n\t\tbox-sizing: border-box;\n\t\tfont-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, \"Segoe UI\", Roboto, sans-serif;\n\t\tmargin: 1.5rem 0;\n\t\tbox-shadow: 0 2px 8px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.06);\n\t}\n\t.rtp-grid {\n\t\tdisplay: flex;\n\t\talign-items: stretch;\n\t}\n\t.rtp-col {\n\t\tdisplay: flex;\n\t\talign-items: flex-start;\n\t\tgap: 12px;\n\t\tflex: 1;\n\t\tpadding: 0 20px;\n\t}\n\t.rtp-col .rtp-content {\n\t\tpadding-top: 0;\n\t\tmargin-top: 0;\n\t}\n\t.rtp-col .rtp-content p:first-child,\n\t.rtp-col .rtp-content a:first-child {\n\t\tmargin-top: 0;\n\t\tpadding-top: 0;\n\t}\n\t.rtp-col:first-child { padding-left: 0; }\n\t.rtp-col:last-child  { padding-right: 0; }\n\t.rtp-vdivider {\n\t\twidth: 1px;\n\t\tbackground: #e5e5e5;\n\t\tflex-shrink: 0;\n\t}\n\t.rtp-icon {\n\t\twidth: 36px;\n\t\theight: 36px;\n\t\tborder-radius: 8px;\n\t\tdisplay: flex;\n\t\talign-items: center;\n\t\tjustify-content: center;\n\t\tflex-shrink: 0;\n\t\talign-self: flex-start;\n\t}\n\t.rtp-blue   { background: #E6F1FB; color: #185FA5; }\n\t.rtp-green  { background: #C0DD97; color: #27500A; }\n\t.rtp-yellow { background: #FAEEDA; color: #854F0B; }\n\t.rtp-red    { background: #FCEBEB; color: #A32D2D; }\n\t.rtp-gray   { background: #F1EFE8; color: #5F5E5A; }\n\t.rtp-quellenbox .rtp-label {\n\t\tfont-size: 13px;\n\t\tfont-weight: 600;\n\t\tcolor: #111111;\n\t\tmargin: 0 0 3px 0 !important;\n\t\tpadding: 0 !important;\n\t\tline-height: 1.4;\n\t}\n\t.rtp-quellenbox .rtp-desc {\n\t\tfont-size: 12px;\n\t\tcolor: #666666;\n\t\tmargin: 0;\n\t\tline-height: 1.4;\n\t\tmargin-top: 3px;\n\t}\n\t.rtp-quellenbox .rtp-link {\n\t\tfont-size: 12px;\n\t\tfont-weight: 500;\n\t\tcolor: #185FA5;\n\t\ttext-decoration: none;\n\t\tdisplay: inline-block;\n\t\tline-height: 1.4;\n\t}\n\t.rtp-quellenbox .rtp-link:hover { text-decoration: underline; }\n\n\t\/* Mobile: untereinander *\/\n\t@media (max-width: 640px) {\n\t\t.rtp-grid        { flex-direction: column; gap: 12px; }\n\t\t.rtp-col         { padding: 0; }\n\t\t.rtp-vdivider    { width: 100%; height: 1px; }\n\t}\n\t<\/style>\n\t\r\n<p>Modena publishes audited annual reports, even though there is no regulatory obligation to do so for the investment product.

Compared with the previous year, all three figures have improved.<\/p>\r\n<p>A look back at 2023 does put this into perspective. At that time, the equity ratio still stood at 63.1%. The drop in the following year goes back to a single transaction: a capital reserve of \u20ac2 million, previously contributed by a related party, was converted back into a loan in 2024. Equity fell as a result from \u20ac2.60 million to \u20ac0.96 million, even though the year closed with a profit.<\/p>\r\n<p>Investors should also pay attention to the composition of the balance sheet. Of the current \u20ac1.08 million in equity, \u20ac0.90 million consists of capitalised software. The tangible equity therefore amounts to only around \u20ac181,000.<\/p>\r\n<hr \/>\r\n<h3>Lender Risk<\/h3>\r\n<p>Modena is both the platform and the sole lender. Anyone investing on the P2P platform therefore carries the risk of a single Estonian company.<\/p>\r\n<p>For the credit assessment, Modena uses a multi-stage process. Through the group-owned Modena Payments O\u00dc, the applicant&#8217;s bank data is analysed as part of an account information service, among other things for regular salary payments, existing obligations, payments to debt collection agencies and bailiffs, as well as conspicuous payments to gambling providers. This is complemented by checks with several credit bureaus, screenings with anti-fraud service providers and a self-assessment by the customer.<\/p>\r\n<p>As affordability limits, Modena states that no more than 50% of the official income may be spent on financial services and that the income must exceed living costs plus financial obligations and a ten percent buffer. Recoveries are handled without an external debt collection agency. Instead, new instalment arrangements are agreed first, or, in case of doubt, the matter goes directly to court.<\/p>\r\n<h4>Portfolio Quality<\/h4>\r\n<p>Modena does not publish any arrears or default rates on its statistics page. On request, however, the platform discloses the figures in full (September 2026), which is by no means a given in the current market environment.<\/p>\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\">\r\n<table class=\"has-fixed-layout\">\r\n<thead>\r\n<tr>\r\n<th><strong>Metric<\/strong><\/th>\r\n<th><strong>Value<\/strong><\/th>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n<\/thead>\r\n<tbody>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td>Total portfolio<\/td>\r\n<td>EUR 8.7M<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td>of which loans<\/td>\r\n<td>EUR 7.2M<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td>of which BNPL<\/td>\r\n<td>EUR 0.8M<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td>of which non-performing<\/td>\r\n<td>EUR 0.7M<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td>Default rate loans<\/td>\r\n<td>6.3% (target: 5% to 8%)<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td>Default rate BNPL<\/td>\r\n<td>1.7% (target: 1% to 2%)<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td>Monthly loan issuance<\/td>\r\n<td>EUR 2.0M<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n<\/tbody>\r\n<\/table>\r\n<\/figure>\r\n<p>With an NPL ratio of 8%, Modena sits within the normal range for unsecured consumer lending. In addition, both default rates move within the platform&#8217;s own target corridors.<\/p>\r\n<p>According to the platform, the recovery of defaulted loans reaches 51% of the claim within twelve months, 65% within 24 months and 75% within four years. In the end, this leaves a loss of around one quarter of the defaulted claims.<\/p>\r\n<p>What matters for investors is where these defaults end up. Loans in arrears leave the investor portfolio through the buyback and remain with Modena. Of the loan portfolio of \u20ac8.7 million, around \u20ac7.5 million has been sold to investors, which means that the bulk of the \u20ac0.7 million in non-performing claims sits on Modena&#8217;s own balance sheet. Measured against equity of \u20ac1.08 million, this is a considerable share.<\/p>\r\n<p>This construction only holds as long as Modena can shoulder the buybacks under its own steam.<\/p>\r\n<h4>Regulatory Outlook: CCD II<\/h4>\r\n<p>From 20 November 2026, the new EU Consumer Credit Directive (CCD II) applies. For the first time, interest-free instalment payments, BNPL models and small loans below \u20ac200 will fall under consumer credit law, including a mandatory creditworthiness assessment and extended information duties.<\/p>\r\n<p>This hits Modena at the core of its new business. Of roughly \u20ac2.1 million in monthly loan issuance, around \u20ac1.5 million is BNPL, with an average contract value of \u20ac200. Management expects that the product cannot be continued in its current form and anticipates a volume decline of around 50%.<\/p>\r\n<p>For the investment product, the direct effect is manageable. Due to the short terms, BNPL accounts for only \u20ac0.8 million of the \u20ac8.7 million portfolio. The claims in the vaults, on the other hand, predominantly come from the lending business.<\/p>\r\n<p>Indirectly, it weighs more heavily. BNPL is also Modena&#8217;s most important customer acquisition channel, through which around 23,000 new customers came into the company in 2024. And the 2025 profit of \u20ac231,943 leaves little room for revenue shortfalls, especially as it rests entirely on the capitalisation of internally generated development work. A decline therefore hits exactly the balance sheet that also carries the buyback.<\/p>\r\n<p>On the other hand, Modena already holds a creditor license and an established assessment process. The additional effort is likely to be lower than for pure BNPL providers coming under supervision for the first time. A consolidation of the Estonian market could therefore also bring Modena additional market share.<\/p>\r\n<hr \/>\r\n<h2>Advantages and Disadvantages<\/h2>\r\n<p>In this section, I have listed what I

far?<\/p>\r\n<p>Modena is one of the most forthcoming newcomers in the P2P lending market. The platform publishes audited annual reports even though it is not required to, provides the assignment agreement on request and discloses default and recovery rates.<\/p>\r\n<p>The explanation of why it decided against a structure for segregating funds is more honest than what most competitors deliver at this point.<\/p>\r\n<p>Precisely this openness, however, shows how far the marketing and the contractual reality diverge. <span style=\"font-size: 1.125rem;\">On one hand, the buyback is merely a contractual right with a floor of 75% of the principal. On the other, the segregated accounts offer investors no legal protection, since the account holder is Modena itself.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>Whether an investment is worthwhile depends primarily on your personal strategy and risk tolerance.<\/p>\r\n<p>Anyone who values the monthly payout feature and is prepared to carry the risk of a single Estonian lender without regulation, without segregation of funds and without an enforceable buyback entitlement can consider Modena as a small addition.<\/p>\r\n<p>As a core position in a P2P portfolio, the platform is in my view currently not suitable.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<hr \/>\r\n<h3><strong>Modena Alternatives<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n<p>Already invested with Modena? Or looking for similar platforms? Here are three Modena alternatives from the current P2P market environment.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Monefit SmartSaver:<\/strong> The structurally closest product. Also based in Estonia, also unregulated and also a refinancing instrument for the lending business of the parent group (Creditstar Group). Unlike Modena, however, it is backed by a considerably larger and longer-established lending group.

It is operated by Modena Estonia O\u00dc, a lender licensed since August 2021. The advertised return is up to 11%.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<div id=\"faq-question-modena-2\" class=\"schema-faq-section\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">\u2705 Is Modena regulated and safe?<\/strong>\r\n<p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">No, at least not the investment product. Modena Estonia O\u00dc holds a creditor license from the Estonian Financial Supervision Authority, which covers the lending business towards borrowers. Modena itself makes clear that it is not a crowdfunding provider and that user funds are not deposits. There is no investor compensation scheme and no deposit protection.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<div id=\"faq-question-modena-3\" class=\"schema-faq-section\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">\u2705 Is there a buyback guarantee offered by Modena?<\/strong>\r\n<p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Modena refers to the mechanism as a buyback guarantee, but the assignment agreement grants the platform a right and not an obligation. After more than 30 days of arrears, Modena can buy back the claim, at a price of at least 75% of the outstanding principal. Investors only receive 100% if Modena exercises the buyback without a specific trigger. There is no provision fund.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<div id=\"faq-question-modena-4\" class=\"schema-faq-section\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">\u2705 What return can I expect with Modena?<\/strong>\r\n<p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">The advertised return is up to 11% per year, depending on the chosen vault. The platform&#8217;s own statistics page reports an average annualised return of 9.31% in September 2026, calculated on the basis of the last three months. Modena itself states an average expectation of around 10% per year.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<div id=\"faq-question-modena-5\" class=\"schema-faq-section\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">\u2705 Is there a secondary market?<\/strong>\r\n<p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">No, the agreement explicitly excludes one. Claims may only be sold back to Modena. To do so, the investor submits a sell order, which Modena reviews within 14 calendar days and may execute in full, in part or not at all. In practice, payouts from the Dynamic Vault are usually made the following day, but there is no contractual entitlement to this.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":38595,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"template-centered.php","meta":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.8.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Modena Review 2026: Too Much Risk for 11%?<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"My Modena Review 2026: Estonian P2P platform with up to 11% returns.
