No. Once a policy is sold, the original beneficiaries are completely removed from the policy and have no tax obligations related to the transaction.
The sale transfers all ownership rights to the buyer, including the right to the death benefit in the future. Because the beneficiaries no longer have a stake in the policy, they are not taxed and are not involved in the settlement in any way.
The only tax considerations apply to the seller who receives the payout.
