UNION - The Bill Discounting Platform on Blockchain Peer-to-Bussiness Market-place

PRESENTATION

A storm has hit the investment market which we are not going to recover from. Crypto investment is that storm. With strict capital controls in place by most countries to control the flow of money and charge high taxes, cryptocurrency gained usage in circumventing capital controls and taxes, leading to an increase in demand. Cryptocurrency has been able to present an easy to use digital alternative to fiat currencies. Offering frictionless transactions and inflation control, investors have been prudent enough to add these currencies in their diversified portfolios as an asset, as the size of the market does not represent a systemic risk. Cryptocurrency employs the use of cryptography that assures high-security processes and verifies transactions personal to each user. Hence, counterfeiting and anonymous transactions are impossible to achieve.

While this revolution is gaining wide acceptance, Union, an Indian company targeting Indian market, of approximately 400 Million Millennial, and market size is around 200 Billion USD has arrived.

Now that I have your attention, let’s get right to it.

What exactly is UNION?

Union is an Indian company targeting Indian market, of approximately 400 Million Millennial, and market size is around 200 Billion USD. However, given the public ledger system of our blockchain technology, the platform is available for use by lenders all over the globe.

Union has established expertise in offline community lending system and as well in generating online ifnancial services in the lending sector. We want to take our services to another level to give the users our platform the best possible experience by leveraging the power of blockchain technology and smart contract system to improve the peer-to-peer lending process.

Union first initiative is to put Collectively Investment Schemes, also known as trusted lending circle, or Rotating and Savings Credit Association (ROSCA) on blockchain. Collectively Investment Schemes is used around the world to lend and save money within communities, to support each other financially.

As the existing Collectively Investment Schemes work on silos within the separate communities, traditionally it is very hard to leverage the reputation and trust outside of one's trusted circle. With Union social capital gained can be utilize across the platform, as the solution is decentralized, transparent, secure and auditable. This will help us in creating an ecosystem of financial products, which users can avail, based on their reputation.

GOAL

The Union project aims to provide an alternative decentralized lending solution to individuals and small businesses with the use of the innovative blockchain technology. The Union Blockchain lending platform supports both Cryptocurrency and fiat money.

The Vision

To create an e-democratic financial ecosystem for banked and unbanked individuals, on blockchain technology while making use of trusts, commitments, and social capital.

The Mission

To improve the financial inclusion of the individual by leveraging the blockchain technology. We are going to do this by removing the inefficiencies in the existing system, and automating the different processes of lending and borrowing. Union will focus on developing portfolio of financial products that will use social capital and trusts of an individual.

The Problem

Traditional lending institutions maintain rigorous regulatory and loan approval requirements to protect the end-user. As a result, a large porson of the world’s population does not have access to lending services.

Individuals who did not fulfill a compulsory minimum credit history and small businesses operating in emerging markets find it difficult to gain access to the traditional financial system. This has given rise to an increasing demand for peer-to-peer lending services.

The Solution

Union proposed solution through the blockchain technology implementation. The rapid advancement of blockchain technology has led to a fundamental shift away from conventional lenders being the leading intermediary in the lending industry. Peer to peer lending is gaining momentum as the next development in the financials sector. Union leverages the added of both blockchain and cryptocurrency to improve the experience of both lenders and borrowers. We have therefore, developed a platform, which supports cryptocurrency and fiat currency for the purposes of peer-to-peer lending.

Features of Union

Decentralized which helps it to work globally for all the individuals.

Auditable as it can be audited easily.

How does it work?

Union is a blockchain based platform which basically works om four of its products

It will have all the features of chit chatting, funding, bidding and assigning the projects while it will monitor all the working of the platform efficient.

Union Social Commitment – It works on the basis of a social ranking which is given to the individual of the platforms after the completion of smart contract. More the trust, more the people you will have to invest in your idea. More will be the connection which will be used ahead.

Union leading authentication – It also works on the basis of rankings which is given on the basis of the worthiness of a user on a platform that includes timely payment of other scheme funds, other projects and their social accounts. More the credibility score more will be chances of people trusting the individual and after that, they can establish their connection outside their circles too.

Union advances – An individual owning a business when once gets the credit score and gains trust then they can make their own smart contracts to be fulfilled by the people. As it is decentralized and democratized, everyone can take part in it increasing the chances of business to grow accordingly.
