Key Life

Accordion Arrow

Research carried out by Legal & General in 2011 found that 95% of businesses had at least one key individual, and 53% said they would stop trading after the death of a key person.

Key Person Cover is a type of protection cover set up to provide a lump sum (or regular payment) in the event of a key person suffering a serious illness, being unable to work for a length of time, or upon death. The cover gives businesses the cash to survive periods of difficulty and helps replace the skills and knowledge that directly contributed to the financial success of the business.

Our specialists can tell you what impact the loss of a key person will have and provide you with an accurate amount. Our advisers then work collaboratively with our in-house tax team to ensure the whole process is tax-efficient. We hold strong relationships with main insurance providers, including Legal & General, Royal London and Scottish Widows, so we can confidently source the right cover plan.

Relevant Life Policy

Accordion Arrow

A Relevant Life Policy is an individual cover set up to benefit that individual’s family and dependents. This is a more flexible alternative to having a death in service (group life) benefit, and provides life cover on an individual basis.

This type of policy ensures you are covered, without compromise, in a tax-efficient manner and helps employers provide added peace of mind for their people, as it is a benefit to both them and the business.

Who suits a Relevant Life Policy?

Relevant Life Policies suit owner-managed businesses, company directors, and other employees who might want high levels of life cover but with the tax and other benefits associated with large group death-in-service schemes.

  • Businesses have to few eligible employees to warrant a group life scheme
  • Owners and directors that want tax-efficient life cover that’s four times their salary
  • Company directors who require life cover as part of their package
  • High earning employees or directors who have substantial pension funds but don’t want their cover included in their lifetime allowance
  • Employees of self-employed or equity partners

Shareholder Protection

Accordion Arrow

Ensure your business and family has the cash to carry on with shareholder protection. Protect the future of your business and your family if the worst was to happen. 

Shareholder protection is effectively business succession planning. It ensures preparedness for the death or illness of the affected shareholder, who shall receive fair payment for their shares. The remaining shareholders have the option and funds to purchase the shares.

This avoids the affected shareholder’s family having to be involved in the future running of the business. The family benefits from the market value of the shareholding, or a specified cash payment, rather than be at the mercy of the remaining shareholder’s offer.

Employee benefits

Accordion Arrow

Attractive workplace benefits can be an affordable way to recruit, reward and retain the high-calibre personnel your business needs.

We can offer you the benefit of many years of experience if you are interested in providing extra benefits for your workforce. Your employees are your number one asset for enhancing the experience of your clients and for your continued business success. Benefits give staff peace-of-mind and incentivise their performance.
