This webinar covers...

Life settlements & synthetic longevity / mortality structures are a small specialized investment instrument for institutional investors. Although we in the industry begin and end our days considering various aspects of our field, global macro portfolio managers must weigh the risks and rewards of the asset class relative to other more honed strategies such as structured credit, equities, real estate, emerging markets and perhaps commodities & currencies. This presentation will provide insight into some of the challenges and merits of the life settlement industry from the perspective of a fund manager.

  • Purchasing Life Settlements via a Provider
  • Investing into a Settlement Specific Fund Across Strategies
  • Purchasing a Stake in a Life Settlement Company
  • Managed Accounts vs. Hedge Fund Model: How this will effect illiquid assets such as life settlements.
  • Liquidity mismatch between life settlements & hedge funds, pension funds, insurance companies, and endowments.
  • Can settlements be a standalone strategy? Or are they better off as one component of a portfolio?
