English term or phrase:to buy out policyholders from their inherited estate
Plans by Aviva **to buy out policyholders from their 'inherited estate'** should be decided in the courts today.
Wie würdet ihr das formulieren? Meine provisorische Lösung:
Pläne von Aviva, **Versicherungsnehmern ihre Vermögen (ihre Ansprüche?) aus Sterblichkeitsgewinnen (Inherited Estates) abzukaufen**, wird voraussichtlich heute gerichtlich entschieden.
Passt das so?
Als Hintergrundinfo:
Aviva stick at £500 for estate cash
By Justin Harper 16/09/2009
Cash point
Controversial plans by Aviva to buy out policyholders from their "inherited estate" should be decided in the courts today.
The UK's largest insurer, which was formerly known as Norwich Union, has a surplus fund of £1.2billion built up when policyholders die and can't be traced. It also includes money held back from with-profits policyholders rather than paid out in bonuses.
The company has offered a million customers sweeteners - averaging £500 - in return for surrendering their rights to the fund.
Aviva originally said it would pay out £1billion, but halved the amount, blaming tumbling stock markets, which have slashed the value of the fund.
Danke an alle! Also ich denke, Annettes Vorschlag ("verwaiste Vermögenswerte") passt hier. Der Quelle nach werden beide Begriffe eindeutig synonym verwendet. 4 KudoZ points were awarded for this answer
Myth busting!
The inherited estate is money
that past policyholders have
not claimed
No. These are referred to as
orphan assets. Orphan assets
are not included in the inherited
estate, because they remain part
of our obligation to policyholders
and are accounted for as such.

Danke an alle! Also ich denke, Annettes Vorschlag ("verwaiste Vermögenswerte") passt hier. Der Quelle nach werden beide Begriffe eindeutig synonym verwendet.
ich habe leider auch keine Ahnung, wie man "inherited estate" hier am besten übersetzt, aber ich denke, dass es sich hier eher um das "inherited estate" von Aviva handelt, aus dem die Versicherungsnehmer "abgefunden" werden sollen. Siehe dazu auch den nachstehenden Link. Mal schauen, was die Versicherungsexperten dazu meinen.
LG, Daniel
