Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
* Assumption I is not implicit: When a central regulatory authority issues a strict directive, it assumes the subordinate institutions will obey it, not violate it.
* Assumption II is implicit: Denying future credit is a highly restrictive measure meant to pressure defaulters into settling past dues to regain borrowing eligibility.
* Assumption III is implicit: The fundamental premise behind enforcing restrictive penalty measures is to facilitate recovery of outstanding default sums.
Therefore, only assumptions II and III are implicit.
* Assumption II is implicit: Denying future credit is a highly restrictive measure meant to pressure defaulters into settling past dues to regain borrowing eligibility.
* Assumption III is implicit: The fundamental premise behind enforcing restrictive penalty measures is to facilitate recovery of outstanding default sums.
Therefore, only assumptions II and III are implicit.
