A life insurance settlement gives a person another option when they no longer need, want or can afford their life insurance policy.
In order to be a potential candidate for a life insurance settlement you first and foremost need to be comfortable with the fact that someone else will become the owner of your policy. This could be an institutional buyer (large bank, hedge fund, wirehouse pension fund etc…) or possibly an individual investor depending on the funder that buys the policy. Secondly, you and your policy will have to fit the prescreening criteria of one or more of the various funders. That is why working with a life settlement broker can be a tremendous help to you. The settlement broker will typically be able to initially prescreen the policy to make sure you will probably qualify, then send it to the funders he/she believes are the best fit for the policy.
While not all policies qualify for a life insurance settlement, why wouldn’t you want to explore an option that could potential give you a multiple over the current cash surrender value of your policy when compared to surrendering your policy to the insurance company?
So if you are thinking about a life settlement do your research thoroughly, both on the life settlement process as well as for a knowledgeable settlement broker.
