  4. AIB is lending and we want to lend It is not in our interest, or that of our customers to support propositions that are not viable in the long term. AIB is committed to striking the right balance between our continuing support for business and making proper, prudent business decisions. We acknowledge that the nature of interaction between bank and customer when applying for credit might be different and more rigorous than before. However, this shouldn’t be interpreted as a reluctance by AIB to lend, but more a desire to provide the most appropriate support to customers.
