    How should tellers act during a robbery?

    • Attack the robber immediately.

    • Remain calm. You want the robber to mirror your behavior. You do not want to upset or antagonize a nervous robber.

    • Cause chaos and call a security.

    • Alert the entire bank. You want the robber to know he has been spotted.

    Correct Answer
    A. Remain calm. You want the robber to mirror your behavior. You do not want to upset or antagonize a nervous robber.
    Explanation
    During a robbery, it is important for tellers to remain calm. This is because by staying calm, they can encourage the robber to mirror their behavior and not become more nervous or agitated. Upsetting or antagonizing the robber may escalate the situation and put everyone's safety at risk. Therefore, remaining calm is the best approach to handle a robbery and ensure a peaceful resolution.

    • What's going on, Mr. Alani. How can I help you today?

    Correct Answer
    A. Good morning, Mr. Alani. How can I help you today?
    Explanation
    The appropriate way of greeting the customer is by using a polite and respectful greeting, such as "Good morning, Mr. Alani."

    • Personal checking account.

    • Safe deposit box.

    • Personal savings account.

    • There is no suitable product for this purpose.

    Correct Answer
    A. Safe deposit box.
    Explanation
    A safe deposit box is the most suitable product for a customer who carries excessive valuables in a briefcase. A personal checking account and personal savings account are not designed to store physical valuables securely. Additionally, the statement "There is no suitable product for this purpose" is incorrect, as a safe deposit box provides a secure and protected location for valuable items.

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Regulation CC requires that the information regarding the availability of deposits for immediate withdrawal must be clearly displayed at ATMs. This means that banks are obligated to inform customers about any potential delays in accessing their deposited funds. Therefore, the statement "True" accurately reflects the requirement outlined in Regulation CC.

    Correct Answer
    A. People.
    Explanation
    The first concern in the event of a fire is the safety of people. This includes both employees and customers who may be present in the building. The priority is to ensure that everyone is safely evacuated and out of harm's way. While assets such as property and equipment are important, they can be replaced, whereas the safety and well-being of individuals cannot be compromised. Therefore, the correct answer is people.

    Money orders, cashier's checks, traveler's checks, and certified checks are negotiable products that are commonly guaranteed by banks.

    • On the back of the bill.

    • On the left of the portrait on the face of the bill.

    • On the center of the bill

    Correct Answer
    A. On the right of the portrait on the face of the bill.
    Explanation
    The watermark on a bill appears on the right of the portrait on the face of the bill. This is a security feature used to prevent counterfeiting. The watermark is a faint image or pattern that is embedded into the paper itself and can be seen when held up to the light. Placing the watermark on the right of the portrait helps to ensure its visibility and authenticity.

    A negotiable instrument is a document that guarantees the payment of a specific amount of money. In order for a check to be negotiable, it must meet certain requirements, one of which is that it has to be made in writing. This means that a check cannot be oral or electronic, it must be written on paper. Therefore, the statement "Check has to be made in writing to be negotiable" is true.

    Bond interest is usually not exempt from state, local, and property taxes.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Bond interest is usually exempt from state, local, and property taxes. This means that individuals who earn interest from bonds are not required to pay taxes on that income at the state, local, or property level. This exemption is often seen as an incentive for individuals to invest in bonds and can make them a more attractive investment option. However, it is important to note that there may be exceptions to this general rule, and it is always advisable to consult with a tax professional or financial advisor for specific tax advice.
