2 of 3 multisig would work with the user having two keys, and one key being authorized by 2 factor authentication. When the user loses their non 2 factor key, they just have the 2 factor one and the institution. The institution can authorize the transaction to move their money to a new address with new keys.

What I'm saying is that the user probably shouldn't have any keys at all, because they will end up losing their money to a phishing scam or something.
