Question

"A registered representative has a long-term client who works in a bank. The representative tells the client that he wants to buy a new house and has started to look for a mortgage. The client informs the representative that because of their relationship, she can get the representative a better mortgage interest rate than is available to the general public. Which statement is true about this?

Answer 1

None

Step-by-step explanation:

Before a bank decides on which interest rate placed on loans given to customers, it will have to be a general agreement between the board of directors in an Annual General Meeting (A.G.M). Or else stated otherwise which is quite rare, interest rates on loans and mortgages are based on a simultaneous agreement. When an interest rate is to be decided for a certain customer, his or her credit scores are evaluated to ascertain the loanee's ability to pay back the loan. When a loanee's credit scores are low, he or she tends to receive a high interest rate on loans and mortgages while when a loanee's credit scores are high, he or she tends to receive a low interest rate on loans and mortgages.

On the case of the client who works in a bank granting the registered representative a mortgage with lower interest rates, this cannot be possible because: first, the client's position in the bank was not clarified and secondly, the registered representative's credit scores will be the evaluation report used by the bank to grant that.
