Life Settlement vs. Cash Value

payment on a life settlement offer is 7 times more!

Cash Surrender Value vs. Life Settlement Payout

The reason is simple as to why you should understand what the true market value of your policy is worth. If you are accepting the cash surrender value (CSV) on your life

policy without considering the market value, you may be leaving money on the table.

“Should I…

Keep paying premiums?Let the policy go?”

As clients get older, a life insurance policy may no longer be needed, or may become cost prohibitive to maintain.

Premium dollars may be better spent on retirement, long term care, maintaining lifestyle, other opportunities, etc.

Policy Owners Face Decisions

Why Life Settlements?

30

“…the life settlement option appears to be not only greatly beneficial for policy owners wanting to sell their policies, but also provides an interesting investment opportunity for institutional investors willing to include longevity risk in their portfolio and to commit for the medium term.”

-Professor Naranyan Nail, London Business School

“We believe the development of the secondary market for life insurance helps consumers by providing additional alternative.”

-Morningstar

“The fundamental reason for the rapid growth of the life settlement market is consumer value.”

-Franklin, Templeton Investments

Page 31: THE OPPORTUNITY IN LIFE SETTLEMENTS 1. What is a life settlement? 2 A life settlement is simply the sale of an existing life insurance policy, of someone

“The secondary market in life insurance policies is good for consumers.” -The Economist

“Forecast show that over 25% of baby boomers will be unprepared for retirement and likely look to turn illiquid assets into cash.”

-AARP

“Seniors selling their life insurance into the secondary market receive an average 8 times their cash surrender value.”

-Government Accounting Office (GAO)

“Needless to say, seniors are looking for ways to bolster their sagging savings. Often they find that most valuable asset they can afford to part with is their life insurance policy, which can have substantial cash value. New alternatives have become available for those who no longer have a need for their life insurance policy. One of them is the life settlement business, a burgeoning multi-billion dollar industry that has exploded in recent years. Life settlements can be a worthy alternative for seniors who are considering the sale of their life insurance policy, and offer a higher payment than the cash surrender value offered by the insurance company.”

-Senator Herb Kohl, Special Committee on Aging 2009
