选项

答案 (a) The transfer of a bill of exchange is effected by delivery or by indorsement and delivery. Order bill requires both indorsement and delivery. Indorsement is a signature and the signature must be the same with the transferor’s name as stated on the bill. Section 32 of the Bills of Exchange Ordinance states that: an indorsement in order to operate as a negotiation must comply with the following conditions: it must be written on the bill itself and be signed by the indorser. The simple signature of the indorser on the bill, without additional words, is sufficient; it must be an indorsement of the entire bill. (b) There are four types of indorsement: blank, special, restrictive and conditional. A blank indorsement only consists of the signature of the transferor. No transferee is specified. When a bill is indorsed in blank it becomes payable to bearer and transfer thereafter is effected by delivery, no further indorsement will be required. A special indorsement spells out the name of the transferee. A restrictive indorsement will prevent further negotiation of the bill. A conditional indorsement transfers ownership subject to a specified term or condition.
