B Correct answer
Explanation

The keyword 'but', leads us to predict a contrast. (1) and (5) are in the same flow as the term selfishness, and thereby cannot be considered. (3), though opposite to selfishness, cannot be matched with individualistic character of a person. (4) is irrelevant in the given context. Only (2) 'enlightened self-interest' correctly matches the term objective individualism.
