      E Retail Brokerage firm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Banks are the most likely to have a concentrated credit risk profile because loans, which are their primary asset (50–70% of total assets), are often concentrated in specific sectors (e.g., real estate, corporate loans), geographies, or large counterparties. This concentration means a default by a major borrower or a downturn in a specific sector can have a severe, outsized impact on the bank's total capital.
