But the interest is lower the more stable the leveraged assets. I get a lower interest if I mortgage my house compared to if I borrow with stocks as leverage, which in turn is lower than a car loan which in turn has lower interest than a loan with no leverage, even if I have a solid income and a stable employment.
Banks are actually very much in the speculation game, which is why different people get different interest rates for the same loan, they speculate that the person with the lower interest has a better chance of paying back the loan. See also the financial crisis of '08
