It is exciting to realize that two apparently unrelated issues could well be the solution to each other: the global ageing population and the challenge of finding assets that offer attractive absolute return with acceptable level of risk. Institutional investors have found attractive return through buying unwanted US life insurance policies from senior insured, which in turn has helped to pay for some of the living expenses of those retirees hence improving their quality of living.

There is a lot that we can learn from the life settlement market developments in the US and Europe in better understanding the risks and capturing the opportunities of life settlement. We believe a deep understanding in the technical aspects (actuarial, legal and operational) of life settlement and high level of professional integrity are the keys for developing a healthy and sustainable life settlement market that can truly benefit the community.

We were fortunate enough to pull together old friends and colleagues in the actuarial professionals and founded LSA Investment Management in 2016. We have come together because we are passionate about creating something of great value to the community: pioneering in developing a sustainable life settlement market in Asia offering the right solutions to the ageing communities and capital market participants.

Through partnering with players in the life settlement, insurance and investment industry, LSA Investment Management has taken an important first step in this journey: launching its first life settlement investment fund in early 2017 with an average annualized return of 12% up to July 2018, alongside of advising a number of institutional investors in Asia on life settlement investment opportunities.

Looking ahead, we hope to share with you soon on more exciting news as we move forward to creating something truly valuable to the community.
