The number of P2P platforms fell to 456 at the end of November from 486 at the end of October, according to Online Lending House, a website that tracks the industry.
Turnover of P2P platforms amounted to 50.62 billion yuan (about 7.23 billion U.S. dollars) last month, down over 50 percent year on year and down 11.23 percent month on month.
The number of active individual lenders and borrowers dropped 9.72 percent and 13.05 percent month on month, respectively.
P2P platforms comprise one of the riskiest slices of the shadow banking system in China, prompting authorities to impose strict rules on the industry to accelerate risk exposure and deleverage the financial sector.
