Problems
You recently graduated from university with a business degree
and accepted a position at a major corporation earning
more than you could have ever dreamed. You want to
1. Open a checking account for transaction purposes
2. Open a saving account for emergencies
3. Invest in an equity mutual fund for that far-off future called
retirement
4. See if you can find more affordable auto insurance, and
5. Borrow fund to buy a condo given you uncle said he was so
proud of your grades and he wanted to give $20,000 for a down
payment.
Make five lists of financial service firms that could provide you
with each of these services
64
Problems - Answers
(1) Financial service firms that provide checking account
services include banks, credit unions and savings and
loan associations. Even securities brokers allow you to
open checking accounts. Recently brokers such as
Schwab have become more aggressive in offering
interest-bearing online checkable accounts that often post
higher interest rates than many banks are willing to pay.
(2) To open a savings account, one could approach
traditional commercial banks, savings associations, credit
unions, or online brokerages and banks with higher yields
but less ‘brick and mortar’ support.
65
Problems - Answers
(3) For a retirement fund one could choose from a plethora of
defined benefit and defined contribution schemes from
private pension funds. Banks, brokerages and insurance
firms offer a variety of retirement investment options
including equity mutual funds.
(4) For affordable auto insurance one could use a traditional
insurer such as Allstate or State Farm or approach some of
the newer discount insurers including Geico and
Progressive. Alternatively, one could use a reverse auction
service such as Esurance to get the best rate.
Note: reverse auction service: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse_auction
66
Problems - Answers
(5) To borrow funds to buy a condo one could
approach a traditional bank, savings associations
that specialize in granting home mortgage loans,
or financial companies such as GMAC. A reverse-
auction site such as LendingTree might also be
useful in this exercise. The borrower is not limited
to a mortgage loan for financing the purchase of a
condo. Other lending mechanisms are available to
finance such purchases.
