How do we collect confidential information?
The information we collect may be obtained in several ways: via e-mail or U.S. postal mail, telephonically or in person. We may also obtain information when an online form, life settlement application or new agent form is filled out.
Will confidential information be disclosed to third-parties?
Our clients’ medical, financial and personal data will never be disclosed to or shared with third-parties who are not involved in the settling of a life insurance policy without written consent, except when required under law or litigation. In order for us to provide services on our clients’ behalf, confidential information may be forwarded to high-quality life settlement industry participants, such as brokers and providers, who are committed to protecting client privacy. These reputable affiliates are required to keep all of our clients’ information strictly confidential.
What measures are taken to protect confidential information?
We have electronic, physical and procedural safeguards in place to protect your confidential information. Once your life settlement application (and all documentation pertaining to it) has been received and processed, your information will be stored (encrypted) and secured on password-protected computer systems both on and off site. Access to this information is granted and given only to employees on a strictly ‘need to know’ basis. Once your information is stored and encrypted on our systems, it will be backed up for loss-preventative measures. In addition, once no longer needed, all hardcopy forms and documentation will be properly shredded and discarded.
*Please note that we cannot be responsible for the security of any information sent to us via e-mail. Although our e-mail servers use encryption technology, e-mails sent to us may have gone through numerous servers that are not protected. We therefore advise against sending any confidential information via e-mail.

Information contained in this Executive Summary related to the investment return or performance of the Life Settlement Interests or other funds or investment vehicles may not be relied upon as representative or indicative of the level, nature or similarity to the prospective returns that the Life Settlement Interests or any other investment may achieve. No reliance may be placed for any purpose on the information contained in this Executive Summary or its accuracy or completeness.
Major risks involved with an investment in the Life Settlement Interests include, but are by no means limited to (i) underestimating the life expectancy of an insured under a life insurance policy such that if more premiums are required than projected at the time of the purchase of the Life Settlement Interests, that would lower the returns an investor might hope to achieve with respect to that Life Settlement Interests; (ii) potential challenges by life insurance companies and more traditional family beneficiaries that they are entitled to the death benefits payable under a particular life insurance policy and/or that the original or subsequent owner of that particular life insurance policy does not have an insurable interest in the life of the insured under such life insurance policy; (iii) challenges by the life insurance company, particularly with respect to a life insurance policy that is still within the initial two-year contestability period, that the insured/owner filed a false and misleading life insurance policy application or failed to disclose that the insured financed the premiums payable with respect to that life insurance policy or that the insured intended to transfer the policy, (iv) if the insured under a Life Settlement Policy out lives the estimated life expectancy for such insured such that premium reserves established for the maintenance of that Life Settlement Policy through the date of such estimated life expectancy are exhausted, an investor will be required to invest additional funds to pay premium and related costs to maintain the underlying Life Settlement Policy in force, and the hoped-for investment returns calculated by the investor may be substantially less than the investor may have projected ; and (v) the financial strength of the issuing life insurance company. Please review carefully the Materials, including especially the Risk Factors Disclosures.
