Investment or financing methods, systems and products that involve LSC-backing. An investment company invests funds directly into an operating company, partially for unrestricted use by the operating company, and partially to finance a hedge to protect the principal of the invested funds. The restricted portion of the invested funds are used to purchase life settlement contracts (LSCs) in a face amount equal to a percentage of the total amount of funds invested. The LSCs may be part of a pooled fund covering multiple insureds or may be purchased on an individual basis. Structured financial products, different classes of corporate security or bond issues, high risk investment and rather investments in which a primary investment may be integrated with an LSC-based secondary investment. Computer equipment for providing a user interface, investment administration, and electronic trading are also provided.
