As UK Gov Eyes Up Regulation, P2P Lender Zopa Raises Multi-Million Pound Round Led by Augmentum Capital

12097v1-max-250x250Zopa, the oldest of P2P lending sites, certainly in the UK, has announced that it's raised a new "multi-million pound" round led by Augmentum Capital, the VC fund backed by RIT Capital. That the company isn't being more specific with the figure, however, suggests that it may not have reached the heights of its previous C Round, which CrunchBase pegs at $12.9m. It also comes at a time when the UK government appears to be taking an interest in the P2P lending sector, with regulation under serious consideration.
