Xyz borrows on a short-term basis from investors to buy the


ABC Bank does business with an XYZ investment company, whose only business is to buy long-term loans from ABC Bank. XYZ borrows on a short-term basis from investors to buy the loans and profits by earning a spread on the long-term loans and short-term borrowing.

b) Suppose instead there is no financial crisis and XYZ is able to renew its borrowing on market terms. What else could go wrong for XYZ?
