People with a lower credit rating score present a higher risk to
lenders than those with a higher credit rating score. Therefore,
those who present the highest risk will receive the highest
interest rates and those who present the lowest risk will receive
the lowest interest rates. While this may not seem fair, the bank
sees someone with a 650 credit rating score as a higher risk of
defaulting on their loan than a person with a 750 credit score.
This is because, statistically speaking, those with a 750 credit
rating score do default less than those who a 650 score.
