Coventry Clinches Top Position in Life Settlement Market for 2024
In a significant achievement for the financial services sector, Coventry, the pioneering company behind the life insurance secondary market, has once again established itself at the forefront of the life settlement industry for the year 2024. According to recent industry league tables published by The Deal, Coventry not only took the top position in the total number of policies purchased but also dominated in total face value. The firm, alongside its affiliate Life Equity, successfully acquired over 1,300 policies amounting to more than $1.4 billion in face value—an impressive feat surpassing the aggregate performance of all other competitors in the market.
Reid Buerger, the CEO of Coventry, expressed pride in the company's ongoing commitment to serve as a reliable resource for both policyholders and financial professionals. "We’re proud to continue serving as a dependable and trusted resource for policy owners and financial professionals alike. While we’re pleased to be ranked #1 for the twelfth consecutive year, we remain focused on delivering unmatched value through thoughtful underwriting, strong advisor relationships, and prompt service," he said. Such consistent performance highlights Coventry’s strategic approach to meet the evolving needs of its clients and stakeholders.
The sustained success of Coventry as the premier life settlement provider points to a long-standing dedication to maximizing value for policyowners while providing stability for institutional investors. Reid Buerger elaborated on this commitment, stating, "Our goal is to make life insurance more powerful, flexible, and valuable." A prime example of this value enhancement is Coventry’s latest initiative, the Enhanced Cash ValueSM program. This innovative program allows eligible policy owners with Universal Life policies to access a significantly higher cash value without the encumbrance of providing medical records or undergoing the typical underwriting processes.
With over 20 years of experience in the life insurance market, Coventry has consistently driven industry standards upward, expanding opportunities for policyowners and integrating consumer rights with market practices. The firm has delivered more than $5.9 billion to individuals who no longer need their policies, reinforcing its reputation as a market leader committed to enhancing consumer choice across the board.
