As per the question, the correct statement to replace the underlined phrase would be 'to borrow...to protect' as it is grammatically appropriate and lexically coherent. The first option is incorrect due to the wrong usage of 'being' which disrupts the flow and meaning of the sentence while the second option inaptly employs '-ing' form of the verb('protecting') after the article 'the.' Options 'D' and 'E' are the wrong due to grammatical errors like unnecessary usage of 'of which' and 'for borrowing.' Thus, <u>option C</u> is the correct answer.

Since businesses are not charity organizations, they must make decisions that will benefit them.
