LAA has performed almost every task and conducted almost every activity related to the life markets.
It is the nature of the consulting business to follow a lifecycle. Each project has a beginning, middle and end. Clients have a problem, a need they wish to address, or a specific objective they wish to achieve and once that goal is accomplished, the consultant should move on. LAA understands this and so, when it comes to special projects, their goal is to step in, solve the problem, supplement or support the client’s needs, achieve the stated objective and then, step-out. LAA structures its engagements such that all of this is expressed up-front and all parties have a clear understanding of the mandate, term and costs associated with the project at hand. Can LAA remain in place to provide ongoing service and support? Of course, but, what distinguishes a project from a longer term engagement is always made clear from the outset.
LAA’s principals have personally done everything from directing and managing the development of IT platforms intended to manage life insurance businesses to communicating directly with consumers. They have arranged for the reinstatement of life settlements improperly lapsed by carriers. They have interviewed, hired, trained and developed personnel, managed teams of vendors and specialists and evaluated and completed thousands of life settlement transactions. They have managed credit facilities, bankruptcy auctions, collaborated in securitization transactions, surveyed the marketplace, analyzed assets and operations and done everything in between.
Given LAA’s background, experience and abilities: to collaborate, manage and coordinate with other resources in service to the client, LAA is an ideal partner when approaching unique or highly specialized undertakings. Constant feedback makes it easy to carefully manage costs and measure progress throughout the engagement and LAA’s tactical skill and expertise can be applied with great precision, to the client’s specifications. In addition, due to the diversity of their experience, LAA can easily assist clients in developing a mandate that meets their needs with a minimum of wasted time and effort.
Engaging LAA affords the client the benefit of over 40 years of combined, hands-on, direct experience with a vast array of life market activities. LAA and its principals have either been involved in or studied the majority of major developments over the history of the viatical and life settlement industry. They have known and worked alongside some of the industry’s pioneers and seen a host of parties enter and exit the industry throughout the past 25+ years. As a result, LAA knows the who, what, when, how, where and why of the life markets and can help you complete your bespoke project effectively, on time and within budget.
