What if I want to close my company?
If you decide to cease trading and close your business, it may be possible to transfer the Relevant Life policy to a future employer, assuming that they are willing to fund the premiums.
Paid personally vs. via your company
Personal Life Insurance policy premiums are paid out on taxed income. A Relevant Life policy premium is paid from your company’s pre-tax profits, attracting Corporation Tax relief.
How long does it take to set up a Keyman policy?
If the person to be insured is in good health, below a certain age, and the sum assured falls below a set threshold, we can submit an online application, and it is possible for cover to start immediately.
Why is Keyman Insurance Important?
Keyman Insurance is important as it provides financial stability in the event of the death, or long-term illness of a key person.
Is there tax on the lump sum?
A Relevant Life policy is set up in a discretionary trust, so no Inheritance Tax will be payable by your beneficiaries.
