A life settlement involves selling an existing life insurance settlement on the secondary market for more than its cash surrender value. Typically, the policyholder is 65 years or older; although, life settlements do not come in a one-size-fits-all package. Since life settlements are salable assets, they often offer substantial value with funds available to use for any of your financial needs.

An individual may decide to sell their policy for personal and financial reasons – especially if circumstances have changed in their life. Some common factors to selling a policy include:

• The policy is no longer required to provide security for their children or spouse.
• The premiums have increased making the policy no longer affordable.
• The need to pay medical or long-term care expenses.
• The potential to pay off debts.
• The ability to assist children or grandchildren with education and other needs.
• The keyman policy is no longer required after the business owner retired.
