Life settlements give financial advisors a way to help clients unlock the hidden value in life insurance policies they no longer need — turning a lapsing or surrendering asset into a meaningful cash payout.

For Financial Advisors

For Financial Advisors

Your clients' policies may be worth more than you think.

As a financial advisor, you've likely seen clients surrender policies or let them lapse — without realizing they had a better option.

A life settlement can put 4–7x the cash surrender value into your client's pocket. That's money that can fund retirement, cover medical expenses, or improve their financial plan.

Fiduciary alignment

If you're a fiduciary, exploring life settlement options is arguably part of your obligation. FINRA has stated that financial professionals should inform clients about life settlements as an alternative to lapsing or surrendering. A policy your client is about to walk away from may have meaningful market value — and you're positioned to tell them that.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why should financial advisors know about life settlements?

Because 88% of policies that lapse or surrender would have qualified for a life settlement. If your client is considering dropping a policy, a settlement check is a fiduciary obligation.

How does the advisor referral process work?

You introduce your client to a licensed life settlement broker. The broker handles the entire transaction — valuation, competitive bidding, closing. You stay involved as the trusted advisor.

How are advisors compensated?

Compensation varies. Some brokers offer referral fees where permitted by state law. More importantly, helping a client discover hidden asset value strengthens the advisory relationship.
