How to Invest in the Coming Demographic Shift

great article - in the UK they now use the term equity release instead of reverse mortgage which sounds much better - however while life settlements allows an individual policyholder to turn an illiquid asset into cash, the institutional or HNW investor is now left holding an illiquid asset unless it can be securitized (which is expensive and requires a portfolio of at least 100-200 policies) - an alternative which I tried to pioneer when I was a director of MaxLife Fund (MXFD on the OTC BB) last year was to create the equivalent of a REIT and allow policyholders to swap their life policies for publicly traded shares or prefs which would give them an appreciating marketable asset which they can sell off in increments or borrow against using a margin account as when needed - anyone interested in more info should contact me at 416-782 8766 or dkahan@canadianlifeopt...
