D) II, III, and IV for sure. Gotta love those non-trading risks, am I right? Keeps the bankers on their toes.

Haha, I bet the answer is B) II and III. Who even uses short-term equity investments these days? That's so 2008.

I’m confused about mortgage servicing rights; I thought they could be both, but I guess they might fit in non-trading?

I practiced a similar question where loans were definitely classified as non-trading, so I’m leaning towards option D.

Emeline

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like derivatives are usually considered trading risks, so that might rule out IV.

I've got a strategy - I'll eliminate the options that are clearly trading risks, then focus on the remaining ones that fit the non-trading definition.

Okay, let's think this through. Loans held to maturity and mortgage servicing rights sound like they could be non-trading risks, but I'm not sure about the others.
