Question
Which of the following is most likely to have a
concentrated credit risk profile?Solution
Banks are the most likely to have a concentrated credit risk profile because loans, which are their primary asset (50β70% 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.
