Central banks generally avoid risk taking behaviour. Accordingly, in principle, the central banks only lend against good security ([[collateral]]) and with a conservative [[haircut]]. In practice, liquidity shortage may force a bank to seek to dispose of assets, even at significant losses that erode its capital. Eventually the central bank may lend against less-good collateral and with less than its desired haircut on collateral valuation - until it won't, when the game is over and the story becomes one of [[resolution]].
