Answer: Option B

Solution

Answer: Option B
Solution:
Nomination is a right given to the life insurance policyholder to appoint a person or persons to receive the benefit under the policy in case it becomes a death claim. One can typically come across an assignment where the policyholder is trying to use the life insurance policy as collateral against a loan he intends to raise. However, one must note that the assignment must be in writing and a notice to that effect must be given to the insurer.
