Quick answer

What discount rate do structured settlement buyers use today?

Most buyer offers fall between roughly 9% and 18% a year. That’s well above U.S. Treasury yields (the 10-year was 4.86% on November 6, 2026), because it covers the buyer’s funding costs, legal and court costs, risk and profit.

Your rate depends far more on competition than on the market: getting three or more written quotes typically does more for your payout than waiting for yields to move.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What are structured settlement discount rates right now?
Buyer offers commonly fall between about 9% and 18% a year. Where yours lands depends on the size of the payments, how far away they are, whether they're guaranteed, the insurer behind them and how many buyers compete for them. Treasury yields set the floor that buyers' own funding costs start from.
Why do Treasury yields matter for my settlement?
Buyers fund purchases through capital markets that price off Treasury yields. When long-term yields rise, buyers' funding costs rise and offers tend to get less generous. When yields fall, there's room for better offers. It's a broad link, not a formula.
Where does this data come from?
The Treasury yields come directly from the U.S. Department of the Treasury's daily par yield curve and refresh several times a day. The 9% to 18% buyer range is an illustrative market band, not a quote from any company.
Is now a good time to sell?
Timing the market rarely matters as much as getting competing quotes. A few points of difference between buyers is worth far more than small moves in Treasury yields. Sell when you have a real need, and compare at least three written offers.
