Provide information for determining adequacy of loan loss provision will not result in credit risk.

Key Points Credit Risk:

The risk of losing money due to a borrower's failure to repay a loan is known as credit risk.
It refers to a lender's risk of having its cash flows disrupted if a borrower fails to pay principal or interest on a loan.
When a borrower does not have enough cash flow to pay a creditor or does not have enough assets to sell to make a payment, credit risk is deemed to be higher.
The lender is more likely to demand compensation in the form of a higher interest rate if the risk of non-payment is greater.
