Scheef & Stone Partner Matt Bracy will serve as moderator and speaker at the National Association of Settlement Purchasers (NASP) Annual Conference on Thursday, October 29, 2026, in Hollywood, Florida.
Bracy will moderate a panel titled “The Early History of the Secondary Market, Part 2 – Legislative Battles and Compromises,” focusing on the legislative developments and compromises associated with the evolution of the secondary market for structured settlements.
Joining Bracy for the panel discussion will be Jason Sutherland of Alpha Growth PLC and Earl S. Nesbitt of The Nesbitt Law Firm, PLLC.
Examining the Legislative History of the Secondary Market
The panel will examine a period in the development of the secondary market for structured settlements, with attention to the legislative battles and compromises that helped shape the industry’s regulatory framework.
The secondary market provides individuals receiving structured settlement payments with an option to transfer certain future payment rights in exchange for immediate funds, subject to applicable legal requirements.
Legislation governing these transactions plays an important role in establishing disclosure requirements, judicial oversight, and protections for individuals considering structured settlement transfers.
The panel will provide an opportunity to revisit the legislative history behind these requirements and the discussions that contributed to the development of the industry.
