      Solution

      Risk weight is capital required to be set aside, stipulated by the Reserve Bank of India for banks. The risk weight is a function of the risk perception the apex bank has on loans for different sectors. It is applicable to all categories of retail (personal, home, car and education loans) as well as corporate lending.  A corporate bond with medium/long term duration of a company presenting negative losses during the last few years, and a BBB rating will provide higher RWA than company having AAA rating.
