Estate Planning Insurance Strategy for Life Insurance Settlements

 

Gain an understanding of life settlement transactions.

A life settlement transaction is defined as the sale of a life insurance policy to a third party for more than its cash surrender value but less than the death benefit. Up until the advent of life settlements in the financial market, the policyholder only had two benefits from a life insurance policy. The first was the death benefit paid at the insured’s passing. The second (with permanent life insurance) was cash value accessed, either by a policy withdrawal or loan, or a policy surrender. Life settlements provided the policyholder with the third benefit for those policyholders who had a policy they no longer wanted or needed: the option to sell the policy to the highest bidder. This white paper reviews life settlements and the use of life insurance in estate planning.
