Top 8 reasons to have life insurance

How Much Life Insurance Is Required For Overseas Based Expats?

The death of a married breadwinner with children could cause severe hardship for the surviving family members. Term life insurance protection will ensure sufficient funds are in place at the right time for the well-being of the family.

Mortgages Debt As An Expatriate with UK based property.

Banks used to insist on borrowers taking out life insurance to cover mortgage loans. No one wants to leave the surviving members of the family with debts particularly if the bank recalls the loans forcing sale of assets.

Expat Life Insurance For Supporting The Family

What would the breadwinner of a family do if their spouse passed away leaving children to be looked after? Would they want to continue working and therefore need to employ support or indeed would they wish to cut back on hours worked to spend time at home? Either way there would be a ‘cost’ to cover that is often overlooked.

Emergency Funds When Your An Expat Based Overseas

All too often a person’s estate on death is frozen or payments to beneficiaries delayed through the process of obtaining probate. A simple life policy under trust for a named beneficiary will pay a sum quickly and easily to that person providing short term cash flow benefits.

Key Person/Expat Business

Many SMEs rely heavily on one or two key employees and an unexpected loss of a key person overnight could cause big financial problems for a business.

Shareholder Protection

Upon the death of a shareholder it is likely that the surviving family members would want the share of the equity paid out to them. A shareholder agreement with each shareholder being insured to the value of the equity held within the business is one way to ensure that the deceased shareholder’s family are protected and funds are available.

Business loan protection

Banks may lend money to a business by securing guarantees on the assets of the business. In the event of a death of a key person insurance could give rise to the bank calling in the loan which in turn could have consequences for the business.

Inheritance Tax Planning

(IHT)/Death duties

Plan for Inheritance Taxes (death duties) by arranging a life assurance policy to cover the IHT liability. This is a simple yet effective way to protect asset value for the family.

And don’t forget

For most situations writing life insurance cover within a simple trust will vastly improve the efficiency of any planning by making funds immediately available without probate delay. Keeping the value of the life cover outside of the estate for Inheritance Taxes and avoiding unnecessary challenges to estate distribution is a simple step you are either not aware about or forgotten.
