I'll go with A, C, and E. Gotta love these questions that test your understanding of basic options strategies. It's not rocket science, folks.

A) G is willing to risk the loss of savings from a fall in interest rates if that offsets the cost of limiting the cost of rises.

Haha, G must be a real risk-taker. Selling a call option on top of buying a put? Sounds like a recipe for either big profits or big losses. No in-between!

B is just silly. What kind of strategy is that? Trying to keep rates between 8.5% and 10%? Where's the upside in that?

A, C, and E seem like the logical choices here. G is clearly trying to hedge against interest rate rises while still benefiting from decreases. Simple stuff really.
