21 years of Mismanagement, Corruption, Broken Promises and Shattered Lives

NEW YORK, Nov. 12, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- In its November issue, National Underwriter Life & Health, a Summit Business Media publication, featured an extensive investigative report into The Saga of the Executive Life Insurance Company of New York (ELNY). Spanning more than 20 years, the rehabilitation of ELNY was an exercise in gross bureaucratic mismanagement, which turned an otherwise healthy insurance company into a financial black hole, ultimately cutting off long-term financial support to hundreds of structured settlement annuitants who have come to depend on their annuities to live.

The Complete ELNY Saga: 21 Years of Mismanagement, Corruption, Broken Promises and Shattered Lives tells, for the first time, the complete story of the life insurance industry's biggest corporate failure, and the damage that was wrought because of it. After twenty years of silence, National Underwriter exposes how regulatory failures across the board are resulting in the financial destruction of hundreds of innocent families.

"The National Underwriter Life & Health team spent hundreds of hours poring over financial and legal documents, interviewing sources and piecing together a 21-year history of one of the most infamous insurance insolvencies of all time," said Bill Coffin, Group Editor-In-Chief for the Life Health Group. "The Complete ELNY Saga is a story anyone who writes, sells or buys insurance should read. It is more than a cautionary tale. It is a red alert to how what happened to one unfortunate life insurance company and its customers could happen to any other company. It is a story of how insurance itself has been put at risk."
