Part 1Gustavo is a young doctor who lives in a country with a relatively inefficient legal and financial system. When Gustavo applied for a​ mortgage, he found that banks usually required collateral for up to​ 300% of the amount of the loan.

C. less investment and faster economic growth. D. less investment and slower economic growth.
