Bus/Financial - Insurance / Viatical and life settlement industry
German term or phrase: Ablaufrendite
Defined as:
"Ertrag des über eine bestimmte Laufzeit angesparten Kapitals" (life insurance)

There must be an English (preferably AmE) term for this - the entire concept of viatical and life settlements originates from the US. TIA

neutral Kevin Lossner: if it is a lump sum, I'd say "at" rather than "to", but otherwise both expressions are OK. Life insurance contracts of this sort (term insurance) are generally lump sum contracts I believe.

neutral TonyTK: They probably get the concept across, but neither one is a term of art in the industry.
