QUESTION

Why does the probability of borrower to pay the promise return decreases when the risk premium
and fees is increased?

ANSWER

Increase in the risk premium and fees will increase the chances of default. Firstly, increase in risk
premium and fees will increase the financial burden on the borrower which will in turn decrease the
probability of a borrower to pay the promised return. The danger that the borrower will not pay the
return will earn the lender a default risk premium. Default risk premium is an additional fee that is
charged to the borrower who is unable to pay the promised return. The Financial Institutions may do
so in order to protect their investments.
