View answer resolution
【Answer to question 1】C
【analysis】
C is correct. Extension risk is the risk faced that when interest rates rise, fewer prepayments will occur because homeowners will be reluctant to give up the benefits of a contractual interest rate that is now lower than the market rate. As a result, the security becomes longer in maturity than anticipated at the time of purchase.
A is incorrect because extension risk is the risk faced that when interest rates rise (not fall), fewer prepayments will occur because homeowners are reluctant to give up the benefits of a contractual interest rate that is now lower than the market rate. As a result, the security becomes longer in maturity than anticipated at the time of purchase.

【Answer to question 2】C
【analysis】
C is correct. Synthetic collateralized debt obligations are CDOs that are backed by a portfolio of credit default swaps.
A is incorrect because CDOs backed by a portfolio of leveraged bank loans are collateralized loan obligations.
B is incorrect because CDOs backed by a portfolio of residential or commercial mortgage-backed securities are structured finance CDOs.
