1 interest: "Interest" is the percentage of the loan that the bank charges or keeps in order to make a profit off of the loaned money.
2 loan: A "loan" is a sum of money given or lent to an individual or a company from a lending institution, usually a bank. "Loans" are given with terms and conditions for repayment: the time frame for repayment, interest, etc. Note that a loan is not necessarily money, and not necessarily from a bank. For example, "my brother loaned me his leather jacket for my date".
3 rate: A "rate" in banking terms is a percentage or proportion of money measured against the whole or entire amount. The traditional use is in regards to "interest" charged on a loan. This "interest rate" can change (variable) or remain the same (fixed) over time.
4 mortgage: A "mortgage" is a contractual promise of security, usually property, to a creditor in exchange for a loan of money.
5 creditor: A "creditor" is a person to whom money is owed by a debtor. A "creditor" lends money to individuals and companies. Usually the "creditor" is a bank.
6 borrowed: To "borrow" is to obtain or receive money or something else, on the condition that it will be returned or repaid. Example: I borrowed 500 euros from my bank.
7 installments: To pay for something in "installments" is to pay for it in increments over a period of time. Usually the terms of payment regarding the amount and the period of time for repayment are established in advance, however they can be redefined over the course of the payment.

"A fixed interest rate" is a "set" or "established" interest rate, which doesn't fluctuate. An "interest rate" is the cost of interest (generally a percentage) on borrowed or loaned money.
"To fix some dinner" is a common expression meaning "to prepare some dinner". Note that we can also say "to fix a meal", "to fix some breakfast" or even "to fix a drink", as Sam says in the dialogue. "To fix" in this sense means "to prepare".
In English, one of the primary uses of the verb "to fix" is the sense of "repairing" or "putting together" something which is broken or not functioning.
In English, the verb "to fix" doesn't indicate certainty or assuredness, and can't be used in this construction. A better choice here would be "now I'm sure".

1 earnings: The "E" in "EBIT" stands for "earnings". In its most basic form, "earnings" refer to the income that a company or a person receives, for example: My job is going really well this year, I've doubled my earnings. Icarus says that "EBIT refers to our earnings before interest and taxes."

In financial terms, "interest" refers to a fixed charge (usually a percentage) for money borrowed, or a return on money lent, for example: I had to pay a lot of interest on the money I received from the bank to buy my house. Icarus says that "EBIT refers to our earnings before interest and taxes."
3 taxes: The "T" in "EBIT" stands for "taxes".

1 CD: "A CD" or "certificate of deposit" is a type of account which generally "yields" or "returns" a significant rate of interest upon certain conditions. For example, you could place your money in a CD with a 3% interest rate on the condition that you do not touch the money for a period of 1 year or 2 years. Icarus wants to invest the second third of the 1.2 million dollars in a CD.
2 interest: In financial terms, "interest" refers to a fixed charge (usually a percentage) for money borrowed, lent or placed. In this context, the company will receive "interest" (a percentage of the sum invested) from the placement of 400,000 dollars into a CD.
3 stock: "Stock" refers to values or shares traded publicly on the "stock market" or "stock exchange". These shares represent money placed in a publicly owned business, a commodity, etc. Icarus wants to invest the last third of the 1.2 million dollars in the stock market in the hopes of getting a return over the long term.
4 market: The "stock market" is an exchange (it is both a physical location as well as a virtual marketplace) where "stocks" (shares or values) are traded (bought, sold or exchanged). Icarus wants to invest the last third of Delavigne's surplus cash in the stock market for a long term return.
5 risky: "Risky" is an adjective which describes the danger or potential danger of an action. In this case, Icarus is explaining to Bruno that investing in the stock market can be "dangerous" or "risky" because of the potential loss of money.
