When an investor has pledged mutual fund units and repaid the loan, what is the correct process to unmark the lien?

Practice question from NISM Series XB- Investment Adviser (Level 1) Mock Test 3 — bank. The correct answer is highlighted below with a full explanation.

Options

  1. A

    The investor’s request is enough if the bank agrees

  2. The bank must formally request the mutual fund to unmark the lien

    Correct answer

  3. C

    The lien lifts automatically on loan repayment

  4. D

    The mutual fund unmarks the lien upon receipt of the repayment statement

Why this is the answer

Only the lender (bank) can initiate unmarking of the lien; the mutual fund cannot act solely on the investor’s request.
