The 2010 Life Settlement Trade Mission (February 23-26) is a mutual effort by the two leading trade groups for their respective continents: in North America, the Life Insurance Settlement Association (LISA) and in Europe, the European Life Settlement Association (ELSA). The stated objective of the Trade Mission is to establish “a new standard for accuracy of information and a realistic presentation of the challenges and opportunities in the life settlement marketplace.”
On Columbus Day, 2009, California seniors were presented with the fine gift of a welcome new law regulating life settlements, Senate Bill 98. The Governor’s signature on this important legislation authored by Senate Insurance Committee Chair Ron S. Calderon (D - District 30) completes extensive work by both chambers of the legislature. The bill, which takes effect on July 1, 2010, regulates the life settlement industry in California, which has seen marked growth in the past decade. A Life Settlement is the sale of an existing life insurance policy to a third party for more than its cash surrender value but less than its net death benefit.
