Q: I know that ranking banks often is like picking shades of the same colour. At this point in time do you feel there is any "clear" division amongst any of the banks for investing purposes? Can you give your order of preference and the magnitude of the gap between each choice.
Thanks,
Terry

Q: Peter,

Bank profits are massively up. Normally they suffer when the interest rate differential between the deposits and loans is as squeezed as much as it is now. What is the big reason for the huge profit jump? Is it simply the loan revenue from mortgage lending, the reversal of prior loss reserves , the wealth management areas or something else?

Thank you

Paul

Q: Hi there, in a recent question you mentioned that 'owning insurance companies provides a bit more protection from higher interest rates.'

Please suggest a couple of US insurance companies that you'd consider for this purpose and which one you'd choose and why.

thanks a bunch, M
