A LETTER FROM THE FOUNDER
Dea
r Policy Owner/Insured:
As Founder & CEO of Welcome Funds, I would personally like to thank you for considering our team to serve as your
personal representative in the secondary market for life insurance. We understand that you have choices in this process
and we appreciate the opportunity to represent you. We also know that selling your life insurance policy is an important
financial decision for you and your family, and our goal is to ensure that you are able to make this choice with confidence.
Welcome Funds is the one of the oldest and largest life settlement brokers in the United States and has assisted thousands
of Americans since our founding in 2000. As your broker, we work diligently to represent your best interests during the
entire transaction, from initial evaluation through the closing process. Our procedures consist of the following:
Initial evaluation and review to determine eligibility;
Evaluation Request assessment and processing;
Medical records requests and life insurance policy verifications;
Obtaining independent third party life expectancy report(s);
Submission to authorized and/or state licensed secondary market buyers of life insurance policies;
Best execution negotiations via an auction process in an effort to maximize the sales price of your policy;
Closing services including contract review and assistance with closing contingency requirements.
In addition to the traditional procedure and lump sum cash settlements offered by the secondary market, we are also able to
provide alternative options that you may want to consider, depending on your personal needs:
1. Expedited Bid Process for situations that require a fast turnaround time due to the possibility of a lapse or a
personal financial crisis;
2. Retained Death Benefit Offers an offer to purchase the policy that includes a beneficiary of your choice
maintaining some death benefit, with the buyer paying all future premiums. This can include a combination of a cash
payout & retaining a portion of the death benefit. This option may not be available in all states or for all policies; or
3. Life Insurance Loansif you are interested in a loan using your life insurance policy as collateral, we can also work
with multiple lending firms to secure financing. A loan option may not be available in all states or for all policies.
Please be sure to inform your advisor or your case manager if you would like to consider any of the above options. We
would also like to recommend that you discuss the tax consequences of selling your life insurance policy with a tax
advisor, as it is likely a taxable event, unless the insured qualifies for a viatical settlement or long-term care exemption in
compliance with IRS codes. Additionally, we have attached a brief brochure for your review issued by the National
Association of Insurance Commissioners to provide an unbiased, independent description of selling policies in the
secondary market.
As a reminder, you are under no obligation to sell your life insurance policy, in fact, if you need your coverage and can
afford to maintain it, we highly recommend that you do so!
Once again, thank you for allowing us the opportunity to help you reach your financial goals and to represent you in the
secondary market for the potential sale of your life insurance policy.
Sincerely,
John

Selling Your
Life
Insurance
Policy
Understanding
Viatical
Settlements
What is a Viatical
Settlement?
A viatical settlement is the sale of a life
insurance policy to a third party. The owner
(viator) of the life insurance policy sells the
policy for an immediate cash benefit.
The buyer (the viatical settlem
ent provider)
becom
e
s the
new
owner of the life insurance
policy, pays future premiums, and collects the
death benefit when the insured dies.
At one tim
e, most viatical settlements were
from peo
ple with a life-threatening illness.
Now, individuals who are not facing a health
crisis may sell their life insurance policies to
get cash.
Your state insurance department and
the National Association of Insurance
Commissioners want you to have the
facts before you sell your life
insurance policy. This brochure
provides some of that information, but
it is only a starting point. Consult your
own professional financial advisor,
attorney, or accountant to help you
decide if this is the most suitable
arrangement for you.
Consider Your Options
If you’re selling your policy to get cash
to pay expenses, check all of your
options. You may find a way to get more
cash from your life insurance policy.
1. A
sk your insurance agent or
com
p
any
i
f you have any cash value
in your life insurance policy. You
may be able to use some of the cash
value to meet your immediate needs
and keep your policy in force for
your beneficiaries. You may also be
able to use the cash value as security
for a loan from a financial
institution.
2. Find out if your life insurance
policy has an accelerated death
benefit. An accelerated death
benefit typically pays some of the
policy’s death benefit before the
insured dies. It may be a way for
you to get cash from a policy
without selling it to a third party.
