Keyperson life Insurance gives a business capital if a key person gets a critical illness or dies.
This allows a limited company to plan for the potential financial loss that it would suffer on the death or serious illness of a key employee. For example, will any loans to the business have to be repaid on the death of a specific individual?
The cash could give a vital lifeline to pay loans, ease cashflow and fund training and recruitment of a replacement member of staff.
Market research suggests the following historic trends justify the need to put key person protection in place:
1 in 10 owners expect their business to stop trading straight away on the death of a key person
50% probability of at least one key person dying before age 65, in a firm with 5 key people
61% of business owners say losing a key person would have a major impact on business
