Likely, you discuss real estate, trusts, businesses, retirement funds, and other equities with your clients at length. But what about their life insurance policy?
Life insurance policies are assets, but not everyone thinks of it that way. This is why seniors leave such huge amounts of money on the table through lapsed or surrendered life insurance policies. If the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act doesn't sunset as planned, your clients may no longer need their life insurance policies for planning.
A life settlement is the sale of an existing life insurance policy to an institutional investor for more than the cash surrender value and less than the death benefit. The funds from a life settlement can be used for other planning needs - investments, new insurance on healthier insureds, retirement, charitable donations, and much more.
