Summary � Ins;tu;on cost structure: Every insEtuEon has a unique cost structure which requires a unique pricing strategy.
� Product cost structure: Different loan products can have significantly different cost structures. It is therefore necessary to look at each loan product individually when assigning loan prices.
� Limita;ons of porbolio yield: If we do not analyze costs and prices on a product-‐by-‐product basis, our overall pornolio yield may be posiEve, but some individual products not profitable. This can cause sustainability problems in the future.
� Remember: Each product is unique and requires a disEnct pricing strategy.
