Selling an endowment

If your With Profits Endowments Policy is no longer wanted, think before surrendering it back to the life company.

Market makers will quote for your with-profits" endowment policy if it is eligible. Market makers can then trade the endowment to waiting buyers who to aquire mid term policies.

If you provide details of your policy to market makers they will determine whether they are able to make you an offer above your surrender value.

On many policies you can achieve an offer significantly more than the surrender value. Endowment policies need to be traditional with profits endowment policies, at least five years old and with a minimum surrender value of £5000.

Why do people surrender or sell with-profit policies?

The reasons are varied but are usually attributed to a change in circumstances such as redundancy, divorce or a change in mortgage arrangements. In normal circumstances, it is best to continue with a with-profit endowment to maturity, but for various reasons this often does not happen. It is important for anybody thinking about encashing a policy to consider all options. These are:

  • Surrendering endowment policy direct to the issuing life office.
  • Borrowing against the policy, either from the issuing life office or from a bank using the policy as security.
  • Making the endowment policy 'paid up' which means no further premiums are payable on the policy, but reduced benefits will be received on death or maturity.
  • Auctioning the policy. Selling endowment policy on the second-hand tep's market.
  • Policyholders should also remember that if they surrender or sell their endowment policy they will lose the benefit of the life assurance protection, and if their policy is with a mutual life office which subsequently demutualises they would lose the potential of any windfall payments. However if you have considered these alternatives and have decided to encash your with profit policy then esp should be able to help you get the best price.

    The Teps Market

    Every year approximately £90 million is lost by people who surrender endowment policies back to the life companies. Most people are not aware that there is a thriving second-hand market in endowment policies and a large number of market makers eager to purchase unwanted with-profit policies to sell on to individual investors or specialist investment funds.

    TEP Market makers are often prepared to pay a substantially higher price for these policies than the insurance companies endowment surrender values. Somewhat surprisingly however, there can be a large variation in the offers made by the various market makers and therefore people who have made the right decision to sell rather than surrender, may not ultimately achieve the best price unless they make use of a service like ours.
