lending standards


Definition
Policies that are set in place to create universal guidelines within a financial institution for all potential borrowers. Lending standards may vary from one financial institution to another and from one region to another. For example, a national bank may have lower requirements or lending standards for potential clients than savings and loan institutions. This may be because national banks generally have greater access to capital.
