If the Loans in the Bank's Portfolio Are All Negatively

If the loans in the bank's portfolio are all negatively correlated, what will be the impact on the bank's credit risk exposure?

A) The loans' negative correlations will decrease the bank's credit risk exposure because lower than expected returns on some loans will be offset by higher than expected returns on other loans.
B) The loans' negative correlations will increase the bank's credit risk exposure because lower than expected returns on some loans will be offset by higher than expected returns on other loans.
C) The loans' negative correlations will increase the bank's credit risk exposure because higher returns on less risky loans will be offset by lower returns on riskier loans.
D) The loans' negative correlations will decrease the bank's credit risk exposure because higher returns on less risky loans will be offset by lower returns on riskier loans.
E) There is no impact on the bank's credit risk exposure.
