GHF Group Life Settlement Fund Surpasses Targets

GHF Group announces today that subscriptions in their their Life Settlement Fund has now surpassed that of their popular GHF Aggressive Fund.

George Town, Cayman Islands, September 27, 2009 --(PR.com)-- “This is a result of offering a protected investment with guaranteed returns in an environment of devastated equity markets. Sophisticated investors are rapidly realizing the benefits of the life settlement industry and are quickly trying to secure their own piece of the pie.” said senior trader Nelson Garber.

A life settlement is a financial transaction in which an existing life insurance policy owner sells their policy to a third party. The purchaser then becomes the beneficiary of the policy in addition to assuming responsibility for all subsequent premium payments.

In general, life settlements are an option for high-net-worth policy owners aged 65 or older who want or need access to cash. Independent estimates report that 20% of policies have a market value that well exceeds the cash value offered by the carrier. The majority settled policies are Universal Life (UL) policies which provide coverage for the entire life of the insured. Policies typically have a face value of between $100,000 and $10,000,000 and have been in-force for over two years so as to be outside of the insurance company’s contestability period.
