FAQs
Can I pay for life insurance through my limited company?
Yes. Relevant Life Insurance allows company directors to provide a death-in-service benefit for themselves and their employees, with the premiums paid by the company. This is often highly tax-efficient compared to paying for a personal policy out of post-tax income.
Do LLP partners need different protection than limited company directors?
Yes. While the underlying need to protect the business is similar, the legal structure of an LLP requires specific partnership protection agreements to ensure that if a partner dies, the remaining partners have the funds and the legal right to buy out their share of the business.
What happens to my business if a key employee falls seriously ill?
The loss of a key salesperson, technical expert, or managing director can severely impact revenue and confidence. Key Person Insurance provides a cash injection directly into the business to cover lost profits, recruit a replacement, or pay off business loans during this critical period.
When should business owners review their protection arrangements?
Protection should ideally be reviewed whenever there are significant business or personal changes, such as:
- Bringing in new shareholders or partners
- Taking on business loans or investment
- Significant changes in company profits
- Changes in personal financial commitments
Regular reviews help ensure protection continues to reflect the current structure of the business.
