What describes prime customers?

Prime customers are borrowers with strong credit histories, which shows up as a good credit rating and a high likelihood of repaying the loan. That combination is what lenders look for to assess risk and offer favorable terms. So describing them as having a good credit rating and likely to repay correctly captures their low-risk profile. The other options point to higher risk or different behavior—poor credit implies higher default risk, cash purchases aren’t loans, and borrowing well above a limit isn’t typical for prime borrowers.
