Perhaps "Omega-subprime" for specific big-Omega, and "subprime" generically.
Every number is O-subprime for some big-O (including 1, where O=0): A001222.
Of course while arguably less less is more here, great care is still needed
in applications--such as real-estate finance, witness subprime mortgages...
