Credit - Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
When somebody borrows resources from somebody else, credit is the trust that they will later pay it back.[1] The term often is used when somebody borrows money from a bank. This is called a loan. A bank may not give somebody credit if they do not think they would pay the loan back.
