All of the following are examples of third-party ownership EXCEPT

A primary beneficiary is not an example of third-party ownership. Third-party ownership occurs when the policyowner and the insured are different persons or entities. In key person insurance, the business owns the policy on the life of an important employee or executive, so the business is the owner and beneficiary while the employee is the insured. In a juvenile policy, a parent or guardian commonly owns a life policy on the life of a minor child. A collateral assignment can also create third-party rights because the policyowner temporarily transfers certain policy rights to a creditor as security for a debt. A beneficiary, however, is not automatically an owner. The beneficiary has an expectancy in the death proceeds, but unless the beneficiary is also the policyowner or assignee, the beneficiary does not possess ownership rights such as changing beneficiaries, assigning the policy, borrowing cash value, or surrendering the contract. Therefore, “primary beneficiary” is the exception. Reference topics: Third-Party Ownership, Policy Ownership Rights, Beneficiary Designations, Collateral Assignment.
