Cultural Tip
In Italy, when speaking with a professional you often switch to the formal ‘Lei’ form: ‘Mi può spiegare le sue opzioni di mutuo?’ Using ‘tu’ (as in the original sentence) is acceptable if the advisor has invited a more informal tone, but the formal version shows extra respect, especially in first meetings.
