Additional Questions to
Consider
A life settlement is the sale of a life insurance
policy to another person or company in return for a
cash payment of less than the full amount of the
death benefit.
A life settlement provider is the person or
company that becomes the new policy owner in
return for a payment made to the seller. The life
settlement provider becomes the policy owner,
must pay any premiums that are due, and eventu-
ally collects the full amount of the death benefit
from the insurance company.
A life settlement broker is the person or
company who represents the seller of the policy
and can comparison shop for life settlement offers.
The buyer pays the broker a commission if the sale
is completed.
· If you’re asked to invest in or buy a
life settlement, contact your state
insurance department to learn more
about the issues and risks.
· If you don’t have a life-threatening
illness and you’re interested in
selling your life insurance policy,
contact your state insurance depart-
ment for more information.
· If you’ve been contacted by some-
one who wants you to buy a policy
and then sell it immediately, contact
your state insurance department.
This activity may be considered
fraudulent and the parties may be
prosecuted by the appropriate
authorities.

Check with Your State
Your state insurance department may regulate
the purchase of life settlements. Contact them
for a copy of those regulations.
A life settlement is the sale of a life insurance
policy to a third party. The owner of a life insurance
policy sells it for a cash payment that is less than the
full amount of the death benefit. The buyer becomes
the new owner and/or beneficiary of the life insurance
policy, pays all future premiums and collects the full
amount of the death benefit when the insured dies.
People decide to sell their life insurance policies
for many reasons. When an individual with a terminal
or chronic illness sells his or her life insurance policy,
that is known as a viatical settlement. When an
individual who does not have a terminal or chronic
illness sells a policy for other reasons, including
changed needs of dependents, wanting to reduce
premiums, and cash for meeting expenses, that is
known as a life settlement.
A life settlement may or may not be the right
choice for you. Your state insurance department, along
with the National Association of Insurance Commis-
sioners, is concerned that many consumers may not
fully understand life settlements. Please continue
reading before making any decisions.
Understanding
Life Settlements
· Understand how the process works and
when the different phases will happen.
· Decide whether to sell your policy
directly to a life settlement provider or
go through a life settlement broker
who will do the comparison shopping
for you.
· If you don’t use a life settlement
broker, comparison shop on your own.
· You don’t have to accept any life
settlement offer.
· Check all application forms for accu-
racy, especially information about your
medical history.
· You must be truthful in your answers to
application questions.
· Make sure the life settlement provider
agrees to put your settlement proceeds
in escrow with an independent party or
financial institution to make sure your
funds are safe during the transfer.
· Find out if you have the right to change
your mind about the life settlement
offer after you get the proceeds. In
many states, you have the right to
change your mind for a certain period
of time. If you have that right, you’ll
have to return the money you were paid
and premiums the buyer paid.
· Understand whether buyers may learn
your identity when they buy your
policy, and whether they will know
certain medical and personal informa-
tion about you, such as your address
and life expectancy.
Consumer Tips
Get All of the Facts
Before you enter into any life settlement
transaction, you should:
· Contact your life insurer to learn about all of
your possible options under your policy.
· Contact a life settlement broker or life settle-
ment provider for information about life
settlements.
· Consult with your own financial
advisor who knows your personal
financial needs. Be sure to ask
about tax and other financial
consequences if you sell your policy.
· Contact your state insurance department for
information about current laws that may protect
you.
· Find out if you have any cash value in your
life insurance policy. You may be able to
use some of the cash value to meet your
immediate needs and keep
your policy in force for your
beneficiaries without having
to sell it to a third party. You
may also be able to use the cash
value as security for a loan from a financial
institution.
· Review other sources of cash that may meet
your financial needs at a lower cost than a
life settlement.
Consider All Your Options
Other Considerations
· Contact a professional tax advisor. Find
out the tax implications. Proceeds are
only tax-free under certain circum-
stances.
· Know that your creditors could claim the
proceeds.
· Find out if you’ll lose any public assistance
benefits such as food stamps or Medicaid if
you get a cash settlement.
· Know that you must provide certain
medical and personal information to third
parties who will be paid the proceeds from
your policy upon your death. These third
parties may sell your policy and pass along
your medical and personal information to
other individuals.
