The job of CMG Life Services provides a window into the life settlement industry, demonstrating the issues that one youthful firm faces in trying to solve a market failure. This case uses the strategic dilemma of CMG to illuminate the mechanisms of a little, inefficient market and demonstrate how the success or failure of a market can occasionally depend on more than inherent worth.
As essential players differ on the most promising route forward the case lays out disagreement about the future of the industry, and even within the sector. Ultimately, the assurance of the life settlement marketplace for both investors and insurance policy holders may not be realized, and the case lays out the strategic impasse and essential elements that may dictate its resolution.
