# Borrower Allocation Percentages

Allocating percentages to different borrowers helps lenders manage risk and ensure that the pool is utilized according to their preferences. Here’s how to set it up:

* **Set Maximum Borrower Limit**: Define the maximum percentage a single borrower can access. This prevents any one borrower from using up too much of the pool.
* **Allocate Based on Borrower Needs**: For borrowers with a solid reputation or higher collateral, lenders might allocate a larger percentage, while smaller borrowers or those with higher risk factors might get a smaller portion.
