Life Settlements / Viaticals

A life settlement, also referred to as a viatical or senior settlement, is the sale of an existing life insurance policy to another party. Policies sought by buyers are typically limited to only those folks with a limited life expectancy. Such a sale presents a unique opportunity to extract the maximum value of an active life insurance policy and gives the owner of the policy (typically a senior citizen) a chance to repurpose the funds for whatever financial needs they may have. Until recently, the owner of an unneeded or unwanted policy had two options: 1) sell the policy back to the institution that issued it for its cash surrender value (if any), or 2) simply let the policy lapse. In recent years, a secondary market has emerged, which let's policyholders realize the full market value of their policies by selling them to a buyer in the secondary market. Consider that less than 15% of the all life insurance policies purchased by Americans ever results in a death claim.
