What is the beneficiary?
What is a beneficiary, or rather, who is it? The beneficiary is the beneficiary, in other words, a natural or legal person that receives any benefit. This can be a cash payment, a profit from transactions, the receipt of assets or any other income.
The word beneficiary is derived from the Frenchbenefice, which in translation means "profit", "profit". Perhaps the presence of Latin roots in the birth of this expression, so, in Latin, beneficium sounds like "good deed."
