I think the answer would be E. since I made this up. But I know the following two relationship hold High duration occurs for: low coupon bonds low yields Low duration occurs for: high coupon bonds high yields If i gave you the yield volatility (ie. the standard deviation of yield changes, then you’d be able to estimate which one is a safer bond from US or UK, but that information is not here, so you can’t decide)
