- A borrower wants to lower the amount of money they pay in interest over the life of a loan. Which of these tactics is best for decreasing the amount of interest the borrower would pay? making payments small enough to create negative amortization never defaulting on a monthly payment making monthly payments on a non- amortized loan making biweekly payments on an amortized loanIf a $900,000 30-year fully amortizing fixed rate mortgage loan from City National Bank has an annual interest rate of 6.25% with a monthly payment of $5,541.45, and a $900,000 15-year fully amortizing fixed rate mortgage loan from Wells Fargo Bank has an annual interest rate of 5.25% with a monthly payment of $7,234.90, a borrower should: a. Choose the 30-year fixed rate loan from City National Bank because of the lower monthly payments b.

Choose a 7-year adjustable rate interest-only loan from PNC Bank instead with a low teaser interest rate of 1.0% for the first loan year d.Choose the 15-year fixed rate loan from Wells Fargo because of the lower interest rateConsider two equity market investors. The first investor is a hedge fund manager that relies on very active trading, and borrows from investment banks in order to leverage their investment. Their remuneration depends on total base fee earned by their fund as a percentage of net assets under management, plus a yearly bonus based on returns generated above a hurdle rate. The second investor is a high net-worth individual who is investing for their own retirement, which they anticipate to occur in 10 years or more. Identify three dimensions of risk that are likely to have significantly different impact on thesetwo investors. Explain the nature of the difference. Suggest aspects that each investor might monitor in order to control the risks most relevant to them.
