Hey AjiteshArun, thanks for replying. What I meant to convey was the meaning of the term "consumer" itself.
Lets suppose the concerned businesses in this context obtain a loan after the plan is implemented. Once they successfully obtain the loan, they become the CONSUMERS of this loan.
If instead the option had said that these loans are going to be used for the purpose of shopping, credit cards, personal loans, etc, then it would make perfect sense that the businesses won't get the benefit of this plan.

Harsh,
Two reasons why you should be tempted towards A..
1. Consumer borrowing means borrowing by individuals and not businesses/companies.
2. Even if someone overlooks the meaning while scanning options the first time, the almost all other options act as strengthener for the plan's success. After scanning all answer options, one has to come back to A.

I get your point, but then there would be no need to specify that we're looking at consumer borrowing. That is, if everyone is a consumer at the end of the day, we would have no reason to say something like "consumer loan" (we'd just say "loan"). Adding the word "consumer" is a convenient and accepted way to refer to something related to people in their individual capacities (like consumer loans), as opposed to, say, business or corporate transactions (like corporate loans).
What you suggested may have made the option even clearer, but (a) GMAT CR questions must remain within a certain range (number of words) and (b) if we switched to a more wordy phrase, other people may have been confused by the et cetera (what does the etc. in "shopping, credit cards, personal loans, etc" mean?).
