Question: Jyske Bank launched the world’s first negative interest rate mortgage. It belongs to which country?
[A].

Russia

[B].

China

[C].

Japan

[D].

Denmark

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Denmark’s third-largest bank Jyske Bank launched the world’s first negative interest rate mortgage. The bank handling out loans to homeowners where the charge is minus 0.5% a year. It has begun offering borrowers a 10-year deal at -0.5%. Jyske bank borrowers will make a monthly repayment, as usual, The amount still outstanding will be reduced each month by more than the borrower.

Question: For which year, the percent increase of foreign exchange reserves over the previous year, is the highest?
[A].

1992-93

[B].

1993-94

[C].

1994-95

[D].

1996-97

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

There is an increase in foreign exchange reserves during the years 1992 – 1993, 1994 – 1995, 1996 – 1997, 1997 – 1998 as compared to previous year (as shown by bar-graph).

The percentage increase in reserves during these years compared to previous year are:

For 1992 – 1993 = (3720 – 2640) x 100 % = 40.91%.
2640
For 1994 – 1995 = (3360 – 2520) x 100 % = 33.33%.
2520
For 1996 – 1997 = (4320 – 3120) x 100 % = 38.46%.
3120
For 1997 – 1998 = (5040 – 4320) x 100 % = 16.67%.
4320

Clearly, the percentage increase over previous year is highest for 1992 – 1993.
