Answer:

The correct answer is the option B: Trust Indenture Act.

Step-by-step explanation:

To begin with, the name of "Trust Indenture Act of 1939" or TIA refers to the an american law that specifically supplements the Securities Act of 1933 and whose purpose is basically put more safety in the cases where debt securities are distributed in the United States. It does it by requiring the appointment of a suitably and totally independent trustee who is qualified and has the only job to act for the benefit of the holders of those securities, that could be bonds, debentures or others. In addition, this act is managed obviously by the same agent as the other one, the Securities and Exchange Commission
