How a structured settlement income stream works

You're not buying a stock or a bond. You're acquiring the right to a fixed schedule of future payments — court-ordered and backed by an insurance carrier — purchased today at a discount that locks in your yield.

The Process

Four simple steps

1

We source the paper

An individual receiving structured settlement payments chooses to sell some or all of them for a lump sum. We acquire that income stream in the secondary market.

2

A court approves the transfer

Every transfer is reviewed and approved by a judge under the applicable state Structured Settlement Protection Act. The payment obligation stays with the original insurance carrier.

3

You purchase at a discount

You buy the rights to those future payments at a price below their total value — and that discount is exactly what produces your effective yield, fixed for the full term.

4

You receive guaranteed income

Payments are assigned to you and arrive on a fixed schedule. No management, no market exposure — just the income you locked in on day one.

Income On Your Schedule

Payments built around your life

Different streams solve different needs. Whether you want income now, income that starts later, a future lump sum, or a smaller right-sized piece, there's a structure that fits.

🧮

Split Portions

A smaller carve-out of a larger stream — a clean first allocation.

  • Court-ordered. Every transfer is judge-approved and irrevocable.
  • Carrier-backed. Payments remain obligations of A-rated insurers.
  • Fixed yield. Your rate is locked the day you fund, for the full term.
  • No fees. No ongoing management or advisory costs.
  • Cash or IRA. Qualified and non-qualified funds accepted.
