A mortgage-backed security (MBS) is a bond backed by the mortgage payments of a pool of mortgages. From an investor’s perspective, an MBS is similar to any other kind of bond, except instead of receiving a fixed coupon payment, the investor receives monthly interest payments that vary depending on how quickly homeowners pay off their mortgages. That is, an investor who purchases a $1,000 mortgage-backed security will receive monthly interest payments that are based on the interest and principal payments of the underlying mortgages.

I finally passed my SIE this month. Thank you to this AMAZING, pass or money back Solomon's test materials. I did study the book, did the simulated exams about 15 times and quizzes at least 5 times each before taking the exam. The testimonials here helped me follow a strategy and I stayed focused on passing. Solomon exam prep material really prepares you for the exam, I passed on Aug 21 2021 after using other competitive materials to no success. Thank you Solomon Exam Prep.

Thanks to Solomon I was able to pass the SIE, Series 7, and Series 63, great study material if you put the hours in!

Super fast response time to emailed questions, clear explanations in the textbook and in the ungraded practice exams, and unlimited practice tests made Solomon a great resource for preparing for my SIE. Passed on first try!

I have passed the SIE, Series 63, and Series 65 all on the 1st attempt. Thank you Solomon Exam Prep! The practice tests are great and really prepare you for the real exam.

Solomon has been hugely helpful to me. In 2022, they helped me prepare for the SIE, Series 63, and Series 79 exams, and I passed all 3 on the first try. I give huge credit to their focused materials and suggested timelines for keeping me on track!

I studied for both the SIE and the Series 99 with Solomon. Both texts more than prepared me for the exam. The practice questions in particular were extremely helpful and were even a bit more challenging than the actual exams. After reading and annotating both textbooks twice and taking each quiz multiple times to the point that I received high scores on each, I was confident taking the exam. Although there were a few questions here and there on the exams that seemed to be outside the scope of the material and had some differently worded questions, the quiz questions were quite in line with the actual exam. I passed both exams my first try. I highly recommend Solomon study material.
