• C

Explanation

Defining the information policy (B) is correct because business information management operates at the strategic level, setting the rules and principles that govern how an organization handles its information. Information policy is a governance activity - it defines what information the business needs, who owns it, and how it must be managed, which is the core responsibility of business information management.

Option A (composing a functional design) belongs to functional management, which translates business needs into functional specifications for IT systems - a step closer to implementation than strategy.

Option C (executing system tests) is a technical, operational activity that falls under application management or IT operations, not business-level management.

Memory tip: Think of "business information management" as the boardroom, not the build room. Policy-setting, governance, and strategy live there - design documents and test scripts do not.
