I’m leaning towards option C because I remember something about interest rates being locked in at the time of policy issuance, but I could be mixing it up with another topic.

I feel like we practiced a similar question where the expense rate was mentioned. I think it was explicit and locked in, but I can't recall the details.

I think I remember that the interest rate is usually implicit in the premium, but I'm not sure if it's locked in or unlocked at issuance.
