Answer: Option D
Answer: (d)
Government debt is the debt owed by a central government. Governments usually borrow by issuing securities, government bonds and bills. Government Bonds are often issued via auctions at Stock Exchanges.
There are two main depository types:
Book-Entry and

Insurance policies do not come under government debt. In insurance, the insurance policy is a contract (generally a standard form contract) between the insurer and the insured, known as the policyholder, which determines the claims which the insurer is legally required to pay.
