Viatical Life Insurance Settlements
|
Viatical Life Policy transfers have gained popularity over the years. The basics of the arrangement is mean to benefit 2 parties - the policy holder (insured) and the buyer or investor.
Viaticals are largely designed for terminally ill life insurance policy holders who no longer want to pay on the policy anymore and would be willing to sell the life insurance for a cash settlement transfer. If you or your family owns life insurance that you no longer want because of high premiums, need for cash or other reason - you do not need to just let the policy last. We have buyers in the market who can price up your life policy for a cash settlement or transfer.
A life option or viatical settlement allows for policyowners to sell their insurance for a high level cash payout. With the advent of new financial and insurance technology, the amount of life insurance wealthy individuals can purchase usually exceeds the amount their beneficiaries require. The insured can profit during their lifetime, if this "excess" is managed properly. The availability of a secondary market for life insurance policies ( viatical settlements ), is what makes this possible.
