Answer:

The correct answer is a. Small firms produce two-and-a-half times as many innovations as large firms relative to the number of persons employed.

One way that the world bank might experience an adverse selection in its own lending is if __________.
Sloan [31]

Adverse selection describes situations when high-risk persons are more likely to receive insurance or when one bargaining side has important knowledge that the other does not. Our goal is to influence decision-makers, both inside and outside of government, to consider the future and adopt long-term plans.

When vendors and/or purchasers have different knowledge about a certain component of a product's quality, this is referred to as adverse selection. Thus, those who work in hazardous environments or lead high-risk lives are more likely to buy life or disability insurance, knowing that they will likely be able to use it.
