MEC Live Event - Life Settlements: Creating Value Out of Existing Policies
Creating Value out of an Existing Life Insurance Policy
Join us to learn how a life settlement can help provide additional value for your clients. You will learn the options for existing insurance policies, what makes a good candidate for a life settlement and the process to complete a life settlement from the introduction of the concept to delivering the proceeds from the sale of the policy. Case studies and specific examples will show the different opportunities and situations where a life settlement could be an ideal solution to help clients with policies they no longer need or want. By attending, you will gain useful knowledge to better serve your clients by providing an often overlooked planning tool. This presentation is eligible for one hour of CFP and CPE continuing education credit upon your registration and attendance.
