Abstract

The current development of information and communication technology has an impact on people's economic activities, one of which is the activity of borrowing money. Borrowing and borrowing money that was originally carried out conventionally, now many have switched to online lending and borrowing activities. However, in its activities, there are problems experienced by creditors (lenders) related to settlement of obligations if the debtor (lender) dies before the repayment period. This happens because in the observed online lending and borrowing money agreements, many do not include the form of settlement of obligations if the debtor (loan recipient) dies. The issues raised in this study are how legal protection is for creditors in online money lending agreements in the event that the debtor dies and what forms of dispute resolution efforts are made in online money lending and borrowing agreements in the event that the debtor dies. This research method uses a normative legal research type with a statutory approach and a conceptual approach. The results of this study indicate that the form of legal protection for creditors in online money-lending agreements in the event that the debtor dies is through preventive protection (applying the 5C principle and every transaction using an escrow account and virtual account), while repressive protection (organizers help through billing units, assist in mediation, make complaints). And efforts to resolve disputes can be done through non-litigation (outside court) and litigation (in court).
