Life Partners, Inc. was incorporated on September 10, 1991, www.lifepartnersinc.com/about/certificateofincorporation.pdf making it the oldest life settlement company in the world. As with all life settlement companies and brokers of that time frame, its first transactions were viatical settlements in which the insured has a terminal illness and is not usually elderly. According to Life Partners' records, it closed its first life settlement on a non-terminal, elderly insured on Sept. 30, 1997.
