Fourth Annual Life Settlement Awareness Month (LSAM)  Offers Comprehensive
Industry Information to Financial and Investment Pros
SAN DIEGO--(Business Wire)--
More than ever before, financial and investment professionals are looking for
timely and relevant information on the life settlement industry to assist
clients who have experienced significant declines in their financial assets and
estate values. 

Now in its fourth year, Life Settlement Awareness Month (LSAM), presented by
Life Settlement Solutions, Inc. (LSS), is offering a more robust schedule of
free educational training courses and expert panels designed to provide valuable
knowledge and insight to financial, insurance and investment professionals. 

"Over the past year our industry has seen many changes that have altered the way
life settlements are priced, regulated and transacted," said Larry Simon. "It is
our responsibility to stay on top of these changes and promote best practices in
life settlements to current and potential industry participants." 

Simon added that, unlike many educational life settlements webcasts and
conferences, all LSAM events are free to attend and do not require any travel. 

"All of our events are designed to extensively cover the most important current
topics in our industry," said Simon. "We`ll cover topics including fundamental
strategies, the new IRS tax rulings on life settlements, various investment
strategies, changes in life expectancy underwriting and more." 

The first event - a fundamentals course for financial and insurance
professionals new to the industry - begins today, June 1, at 1:30 p.m. Eastern
time. Other events include:

* June 4 - Advanced Strategies Course - Case studies (financial and insurance
