Finance involves lot of common sense. So if the borrower is going to be a bankrupt firm which investor would put money in?

 

Borrower need to do many things such as a) offer high rate of return, b) explain and convince about use of funds, the business and certainty of getting money back, c) offer additional security to give comfort. 

 

To safeguard its interest, Borrower need to keep riders of revision in interest rate and/or removal of additional security when situation has improved.
