However, neither class of investors wants to purchase the securities. Pension fund managers think the securities are too risky for their low-risk portfolios, and hedge fund managers are willing to take the risk on the securities, but they feel that the yield is too low for their portfolios. What is one way that the investment bank could sell the securities to both classes of investors? Sell the securities as participation certificates Increase the yield on the securities to 12% Decrease the yield on the securities to 5% Sell the securities as collateralized mortgage obligations In order to sell the mortgage-backed securities to the pension fund managers (who require low-risk securities) and hedge fund managers (who require high-yield securities), the investment bank decides it will need to turn the MBSs into collateralized mortgage obligations that are segmented into three tranches. The first tranche investors get paid before the investors in the remaining two tranches, the second tranche investors get paid after the first tranche investors and before the third tranche investors, and the third tranche investors get paid after the investors in the other two tranches. The following tables outline the payment order, yields, and ratings of each of the tranches within three CMOs that the investment bank could create. Using the tables, answer the questions that follow. Which CMO would be most appealing to pension fund managers?
