- Definition Description of loan products whose terms, when considered either individually or as a group, may increase an entity's exposure to credit risk. Loan products having the following characteristics are examples of products that may create risk: (1) borrowers subject to significant payment increases, (2) loans that permit negative amortization, and (3) loans with high loan-to-value ratios. Includes disclosures of information about the shared characteristic that identifies the concentration, the maximum amount of loss due to credit risk that would be incurred if the borrower failed completely to perform and any security or collateral proved to be of no value, and the entity's policy of requiring collateral or other security for these loan products, including information about the entity's access to the collateral and a brief description of the collateral. + References Reference 1: http://www.xbrl.org/2009/role/commonPracticeRef -Topic 825 -SubTopic 10 -Name Accounting Standards Codification -Section 50 -Paragraph 20 -Publisher FASB -URI https://asc.fasb.org/1943274/2147482907/825-10-50-20 + Details
