GLG Topic: Subprime Mortgage Industry

Subprime Mortgages are loans made to borrowers who are high credit risks. These borrowers generally have credit scores under 620 and are at risk of not being able to fully repay the lender. Subprime loans charge higher interest rates than prime loans. As a result, the loans can be very attractive to lenders and investors in the mortgage industry. Lenders use a process called "risk-based pricing" to determine mortgage rates and terms.
