Whole of Life Plan

Whole of life Insurance Solutions We broker whole of life insurance to protect your wealth and provide for their family when you die by paying out a cash sum.

What is a Whole of Life Plan?

Everyone wants peace of mind knowing their family or business will be taken care of when they’re gone.

This policy pays out in the event of your death. Assets are placed into a suitable trust, falling outside of your estate for inheritance tax purposes. This allows you to leave more of your estate to your next of kin by contributing the lump sum to the inheritance tax bill.

What is included in the cover?

The cover is designed for those who want to provide financial support to their dependents when the client dies. It can be used to cover an expected IHT bill, cover the costs of funeral expenses or provide financial support to your client’s dependents. Cover can also be taken out for business purposes – to provide a lump sum if a key person dies, to purchase shares owned by a director or partner or cover interest payments on a business loan.
