With interest rates at the banks so low, it's a tough time for savers.
Even ISAs are not really performing very well, and it can be hard to know where to put your money to make a decent rate of interest these-days.
One option you don't often hear about in the main press is the idea of 'social lending', a new idea which is rapidly out-performing the current banking system, by 'cutting out the middle-men', the bankers!
One UK example is Zopa, where people lend and borrow money to and from each other, sidestepping the banks.
It's a smarter, fairer and altogether more human way of managing your money, where both borrowers and lenders get better rates. Check out Zopa to find out more.
