Lending to the wealthy

Hi,

In addition to lending to the indigent, lending to those who are wealthy is also a mitzvah, if they find themselves in a position in which they do not have access to their assets. However, the indigent have precedence.

(Shulchan Aruch Choshen Mishpat 97:1; Pitchei Choshen, Halvaah 1:2)

Have a great day,
Mordechai
