      I live in the EU. I recently applied for a credit card, and the banker asked me (about my job): "Is it a management role?"

      I realized that it is a question I have been asked several times in the past by banks. I tried a cursory google & Reddit search, but I haven't found anyone being curious about this.

      I'll try here then. Does anyone know why bankers ask this question? How does it matter? Are "individual contributors" seen as worse/riskier customers than managers?

      I have my own informal, anecdotal opinion, but I'm hoping to hear some more informed answer.
