BVI-registered Tranen Capital to launch Tranen Capital Longevity Notes Ltd.

Wednesday, February 2nd, 2011

British Virgin Islands-registered investment fund Tranen Capital Ltd. has announced the launch of a new Note Program, Tranen Capital Longevity Notes Ltd. The purpose of the new program is offering investors the option to link protective investments to the Tranen Capital Growth Fund Ltd., the fund that manages life settlement policies opportunistically, with several risk-protected structures. These structures will reduce investors’ risk by providing:

- A-rated protection against longevity risk (that of insureds living beyond their life expectancies, the single most important factor in determining the relative success of an investment in life settlements) through the purchase of longevity mitigation insurance that will pay the face amount of any policy held by the Fund that does not mature within the projected life expectancy, and/or

-  A-rated principal protection through the purchase of a structured (zero-coupon term) note, which will return 100% of investors’ principal at the end of the term.

- In addition, investors may choose to hedge, or protect against, the investment risk by purchasing a bond to be used as collateral for an investment in the Growth Fund.

The main focus of the Tranen Capital Growth Fund will be to exploit opportunities in the Life Settlements market, including policies issued by carriers having credit ratings outside the usual bounds, convertible term policies, distressed policies, as well as other opportunistic acquisitions.
