Rawson-Mackenzie shares panel on longevity with Credit Suisse at Life Settlements Conference

David Rawson-Mackenzie, Managing Director of Centurion Fund spoke at the recent Life Settlements Conference 2008 in Las Vegas at the end of September, where he was part of a panel discussing ”An Investor’s View of Diversified Life Settlement Portfolios and the Emerging Synthetics Market”.. The panel explored the aspects of building diversified portfolios suitable for institutional investors, how to manage administration once policies have been aggregated, and how to predict risk and return based on Life Settlements sub-strategy and policy selection. They also examined data management and servicing requirements, clean and compliant origination, optimising value, and incorporating synthetic structures into your portfolio. Other members of the panel included Ann Gorman, from Credit Suisse, David Tepper, founding member of the Life Insurance Settlement Association (LISA) and President of Neuma, and Howard Zail, Chief Financial Officer of Proverian Capital.

The conference was organised by Dealflow Media and gathered together some of the biggest players in the life settlement industry, including Coventry, Credit Suisse, Peachtree Life Settlements, the Institutional Life Markets Association and Fasano Associates.
