Life policies can be used as a collateral for loan when the policy has?

A.

ceased to be life

B.

been temporary suspended

C.

acquired surrender value

D.

been made paid-up

Correct answer is C

collateral assignment of life insurance is a conditional assignment appointing a lender as the primary beneficiary of a death benefit to use as collateral for a loan. If the borrower is unable to pay, the lender can cash in the life insurance policy and recover what is owed.

 'Surrender Value': It is the amount the policyholder will get from the life insurance company if he decides to exit the policy before maturity
