Answer: A. Informational asymmetry

Step-by-step explanation:

There exists an information asymmetry in the financial markets that rises from people being unable to adequately analyse the riskiness of various business endeavours.

Banks overcome this information asymmetry by having experience and well trained personnel that are capable of adequately assigning risk to ventures and charging them the appropriate interest rate to make a return on that venture.
