There are 2 types of assignments in life insurance. Absolute Assignment - This means that you give up all of your rights to a life insurance policy forever. An absolute assignment may be used if you are selling your life insurance policy, or during a divorce where you give up all rights to your policy. Collateral Assignment - A collateral assignment is when you give up your rights to a policy until you have satisfied your collateral requirements.

If you still owe the bank money when you die, the bank would be repaid its money and any leftover would be paid to your beneficiaries.
