unbankable
Cannot secure financing
Unbankable describes someone or something considered too risky or uncommercial to receive financial backing.
In Hollywood, an unbankable actor can't secure funding for a film based on their name alone: After three flops, he became unbankable.
In finance, unbankable individuals or businesses can't qualify for traditional banking services due to credit risk or lack of documentation.
