Selling on credit to people with a poor credit rating is not a good business model. It can be, most obviously with credit cards. You just have to ensure that you charge them more than the default rate. It is the same thing that caused to banking crisis. Wrong. What caused that was the bundling and securetizing of those mortgages and them getting AAA ratings that they didnt even come close to qualifying for. |
