Over-collateralized loans require borrowers to ensure that sufficient amounts of collateral are supplied at all times, or else they get liquidated and pay a penalty fee. To protect against liquidation risk, borrowers are faced with a trade-off. While supplying higher amounts of collateral lowers the risk of getting liquidated, it bears the opportunity cost of not being able to allocate the funds elsewhere to earn higher yield.
