The correct answer is letter "A": True.

Explanation:

Named after American economist and the United States Federal Reserve chairman Alan Greenspan (born 1926), the "Greenspan Put" was a contractual obligation providing a put option holder the ability to sell the asset to another party at a certain price. The put option could be exercised if the price fell below that put price so it could protect the holder from further losses.
