Our Approach


We believe in quality of selection. We have access to nearly every life insurance policy in the life settlement market. No other California life settlement firm can match our breadth of expertise or depth of policy acquisition capability.

The ownership of SPG has put together a platform built on delivering three things:

  • Quality
  • Transparency
  • Selection

Our Mission.


We endeavor to foster an environment of respect, challenge and reward for all of our employees and exceed the expectations of the individuals and companies with whom we are privileged to work with and maximize value to our investors.
