New Calculator Helps Financial Professionals Guide Clients Through Life Settlements

Financial professionals feel a responsibility to keep up with new developments in their industry, but often the volume of information can be overwhelming. With its new agent calculator, Magna Life Settlements aims to help simplify the process for life insurance agents and wealth advisors who are dedicated to helping seniors determine whether they should pursue a life settlement.

Based on an algorithm developed by Magna’s team of data scientists and engineers, the agent calculator provides a unique price curve for an individual’s insurance policy. The determination of a potential settlement payout comes from a database of thousands of market policies, and the size of the data sample provides an informed estimate. The calculator is a time saver for agents and clients alike, because it provides a fast indicator of potential settlement value before requesting more extensive information for an in-force illustration, a process that takes seven to fourteen days.

For a wealth advisor or insurance agent to use the life settlement calculator, he or she will go through a few steps:

First, share your name and contact information. Next, provide details about your client’s life insurance policy. After entering that data, you’ll receive a response from Magna informing you of how much your client’s policy might be worth in a sale. The next step is to preview that estimate, known as a Life Settlement Evaluation. Finally Magna provides a simple way to share that evaluation directly with your client: via print or email.
