Abstract Text This master’s thesis explores the opportunities real estate mezzanine financing o↵ers investors and borrowers through marketplace lending in Switzerland. To answer the research question, existing studies on marketplace lending were analysed, and a quantitative analysis was completed using data from the largest Swiss marketplace lending platform. The results indicate that using mezzanine financing through the alternative intermediary marketplace lending platforms creates new opportunities for investors and borrowers that are not available with traditional banks. On this basis, using this alternative option and optimising its results is advised.
