Why B — Exempt from the definition of a security under the USA
Under USA Section 401(b), insurance policies and fixed annuity contracts issued by companies authorized to do business in the state are excluded from the definition of a security. Since they are not considered securities under the USA, registration requirements do not apply. However, variable annuities and variable life insurance are considered securities.
