> Retail banks take risks with their money Huh? No! They are taking risks with YOUR money. When they lend on a mortgage, or make a corporate loan to a business they're doing that with YOUR deposits. This is how a savings account pay

An MBS is NOT a derivative. It's a cash product. Either way you're missing the point. Securitisation is just a way of funding lending. Whether you use deposits, borrow from the money markets, or securitise loans, the money to make

Kogan.com itself seems pretty scammy. An auto-loading give-me-your-email pop-up that doesn't appear to have a close button. Nice.
