Complete Question:
Why do some lenders require borrowers to secure credit?
A. To prevent defaults
B. To guarantee full repayment
C. To avoid any losses
D. To reduce risk
Answer:
Option D. To reduce risk
Step-by-step explanation:
The reason is that the lender faces the credit risk which is the risk of the loss of the repayment in whole or in parts and the risk of default of the interest payments by the borrower.
So if we see the options, the option A, B and C are basically the credit risk that the lender is facing so the only option that is more general (not specific as the option A, B and C) and includes these three options is option D.
So the option D is correct.
