Final Answer :
Negotiation is an instrument's voluntary or involuntary transfer by a person other than the issuer in such a manner that the transferee becomes a holder. If the instrument is payable to order, it is negotiated by delivery with any necessary indorsement. If payable to bearer, it is negotiated by delivery. A person becomes a holder by receiving possession of an instrument drawn, issued, or indorsed to him, or to his order, or to bearer, or in blank.
