MetLife today announced the Non-Qualified Assignment Flex Agreement (NQA-FA), a new deferred payment solution designed to help attorneys and brokers resolve non-physical injury claims with more flexible settlement structures. The NQA-FA enables settlements to be paid over time, including through deferred start dates, lump sums and customized payment schedules aligned to client needs. MetLife today announced the Non-Qualified Assignment Flex Agreement (NQA-FA), a new deferred payment solution designed to help attorneys and brokers resolve non-physical injury claims with more flexible settlement structures. Share The NQA-FA utilizes a funding agreement rather than an annuity and gives attorneys and brokers greater control over how and when settlement payments are delivered across a broad range of non-physical injury cases. These include employment litigation, wrongful termination, discrimination, contract disputes, construction defects, property and environmental claims, liability policy buy-outs, punitive damages, and attorney fees. With approval, both individuals and businesses may be designated as payees. Only a small percentage of employment litigation cases go to trial, with most resolved through a settlement. In fiscal year 2025, 88,201 workplace discrimination charges were filed with the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), flat from the prior year, but up 9% compared to fiscal year 20231. As settlement volumes increase, demand is growing for more adaptable structures that can address the complexity of modern cases. “For many non-physical injury cases, payees increasingly call for delayed or customized payments that traditional structures don’t support,” said Bejan Shirvani, head of Structured Settlements at MetLife. “This funding agreement solution expands the tools available to attorneys and brokers by combining greater flexibility in payment timing and structure with the strength of MetLife’s guarantees, helping support long-term financial security for claimants.” Non-qualified assignments are commonly used to resolve claims that are not eligible for tax-free treatment under federal law by transferring payment obligations to an assignment company, allowing settlements to be paid over time. However, traditional structures are generally subject to Internal Revenue Code Section 72(u), which requires payments to begin within one year. The NQA-FA is not subject to these requirements, enabling deferred payments beyond one year and a broader range of designs that can align with future events or long-term financial needs.
