Funding markets are markets from which debt issuers borrow to meet their financial needs. Banks have access to funds obtained from the retail market, which are the deposits from their customers. However, these financial institutions also need to raise funds from the central bank, interbank deposits, and certificates of deposit.
Central Bank Funds
The central bank funds market allows banks with surplus funds to lend other financial institutions for maturities of up to one year at the central bank funds rates. In the US, this is often referred to as the Fed Fund’s rate.
Interbank Markets
The interbank lending market is a market in which financial institutions extend unsecured loans to one another. Most interbank loans are for maturities of one week or less – the vast majority being overnight loans – and are contracted at the interbank loan rate.
Certificates of Deposit
A certificate of deposit (CD) represents a specified amount of funds on deposit for a specified maturity and interest rate. CDs are important sources of funds for financial institutions. Non-negotiable CDs pay a deposit plus interest rate at maturity, and a withdrawal penalty is paid if the funds are withdrawn before maturity. On the other hand, a negotiable CD allows any depositor to sell the CD in the open market before maturity.
Question
Withdrawal penalties are most likely imposed on:
- Non-negotiable certificates of deposit.
- Negotiable and non-negotiable certificates of deposit.
- Negotiable and non-negotiable certificates of deposit and interbank deposits.
Solution
The correct answer is A.
Only non-negotiable certificates of deposit have a withdrawal penalty that is paid if the funds are withdrawn before maturity.

Excelente para el FRM 2
Escribo esta revisión en español para los hispanohablantes, soy de Bolivia, y utilicé
AnalystPrep para dudas y consultas sobre mi preparación para el FRM nivel 2 (lo tomé una sola vez y aprobé muy bien), siempre tuve un soporte claro, directo y rápido, el material sale rápido cuando hay cambios en el temario de GARP, y los ejercicios y exámenes son muy útiles para practicar.

So helpful. I have been using the videos to prepare for the CFA Level II exam. The videos signpost the reading contents, explain the concepts and provide additional context for specific concepts.
The fun light-hearted analogies are also a welcome break to some very dry content.
I usually watch the videos before going into more in-depth reading and they are a good way to avoid being overwhelmed by the sheer volume of content when you look at the readings.

A great curriculum provider. James sir explains the concept so well that rather than memorising it, you tend to intuitively understand and absorb them.
Thank you ! Grateful I saw this at the right time for my CFA prep.

I have finished my FRM1 thanks to AnalystPrep. And now using AnalystPrep for my FRM2 preparation. Professor Forjan is brilliant. He gives such good explanations and analogies. And more than anything makes learning fun. A big thank you to Analystprep and Professor Forjan. 5 stars all the way!

Professor James' videos are excellent for understanding the underlying theories behind financial engineering / financial analysis. The AnalystPrep videos were better than any of the others that I searched through on YouTube for providing a clear explanation of some concepts, such as Portfolio theory, CAPM, and Arbitrage Pricing theory. Watching these cleared up many of the unclarities I had in my head. Highly recommended.
