Why Should Families Consider Life Risk Insurance?
It is all about financial security for you and your family. Consider these questions:
- Who would provide for your family if you were not around or you were unable to work?
- How would you cover your mortgage payments or day to day expenses?
- Who would pay the medical costs?
- What sort of lifestyle do you want for your family?
Why Should Business Owners Consider Business Insurance?
Every business with two or more owners should consider what might happen to the business if one of the owners dies, becomes totally and permanently disabled, or suffers a terminal or traumatic illness.
A business generally depends on a few people to produce the profits, provide the capital or manage the business. If there is no viable succession plan, there may be significant financial hardship for the surviving business owner/s, as well as the surviving family members.
We will undertake a full and detailed review of your business to determine your insurance needs.
The key business insurance concepts are:
- Buy-sell insurance (asset or equity) – an agreement between owners should a co-owner decease or is otherwise forced to leave the business – details the transfer of business equity policy etc
- Debt reduction or guarantor protection insurance (liability) – using key person insurance to protect their business against the financial risk associated with debt and
- Key person insurance – a type of insurance that provides financial protection against the costs associated with the death or incapacitation of key employees.
