问题如下：
Welch explains to Finnegan that she is currently following an
asset-only (AO) approach to strategic asset allocation. He strongly advises her
to adopt an asset/liability management (ALM) approach.
B. Discuss three reasons, based on Finnegan’s circumstances, why an ALM approach would be more appropriate than an AO approach.
选项：
解释：
The ALM approach focuses asset allocation on funding liabilities. Finnegan should adopt an ALM approach because:
Finnegan faces a significant penalty for not meeting her liabilities. If she misses her mortgage payments for three or more months, she risks losing her home. She does not want to sell assets to pay the mortgage. Therefore, a portfolio structure designed to meet liabilities would be appropriate.
Finnegan has below average risk tolerance while unemployed. Loss averse investors, or investors with below-average risk tolerance, are better suited to an ALM approach than to an AO approach.
Finnegan’s mortgage payments are interest-rate sensitive. Holding investment assets with similarly sensitive cash flows would hedge this risk. Therefore, an ALM approach is more appropriate than an AO approach for her.
老师，请问这道主观题 “Finnegan intends to make a deposit of EUR 30,000” is more like a liability 可以作为ALM approach比AO更合适的理由之一嘛？
