This excerpt taken from the FABK 10-K filed Mar 25, 2009. Adjustable-Rate
Loans. While we
anticipate that adjustable-rate loans will better offset the adverse effects of
an increase in interest rates as compared to fixed-rate mortgages, an increased
monthly mortgage payment required of adjustable-rate loan borrowers in a rising
interest rate environment could cause an increase in delinquencies and
defaults. The marketability of the underlying property also may be
adversely affected in a high interest rate environment. In addition,
although adjustable-rate mortgage loans make our asset base more responsive to
changes in interest rates, the extent of this interest sensitivity is limited by
the annual and lifetime interest rate adjustment limits.
