Settlement payments are made annually. What is the cash flow for RAB on the first settlement date if the mark-to-market value of the loan falls by 2% and LIBOR is 6%?
a. Net inflow of USD 0.3 million
b. Net outflow of USD 0.3 million

93. Which of the following statements regarding extreme value theory (EVT) is incorrect?
a. In contrast to conventional approaches for estimating VaR, EVT only considers the tail behavior of the distribution.
b. Conventional approaches for estimating VaR that assume that the distribution of returns follows a unique distribution for the entire range of values may fail to properly account for the fat tails of the distribution of returns.

d. By smoothing the tail of the distribution, EVT effectively ignores extreme events and losses that can generally be labeled outliers.
