Financial Update March 2020: Structured Settlements

Author: Joe Pileggi

Financial Update March 2020:

Financial Update March 2020: Structured Settlements vs Market Investments In 2019 and early 2020, the stock market appeared to be a smart place to invest personal injury settlement funds. Unfortunately the “coronavirus” is causing havoc with world financial markets. Just this morning the futures market triggered a fail-safe, and halted the fall of stock values.
