Key Person Insurance

People are often a company’s biggest asset and are vital to the company’s success. If a key person becomes unavailable or unable to work due to death or critical illness, the business could face financial difficulties. Key Person Insurance is designed to protect your business from such potential losses by providing financial compensation in the event of death or diagnosis of a critical illness of a key person.

What is Key Person Insurance?

Key Person Insurance is a type of insurance policy that provides financial protection to the business in the event a key person dies or is diagnosed with a critical illness. The policy pays out a lump sum of money to the business, which can help the company to deal with the financial difficulties that may arise due to the loss of a key person.

Who is a Key Person?

A key person is an individual who is critical to the success of your business. This person could be a business owner, a top executive, a salesperson, or any other individual who plays a significant role in the company’s growth and success. Key persons have specialised skills, knowledge, and experience that are difficult or costly to replace.

Why do you need Key Person Insurance?

Key Person Insurance is essential for any business that relies heavily on one or more key individuals. The death or diagnosis of a critical illness of a key person can have a severe impact on the company’s financial stability. Key Person Insurance can help the business during these challenging times and ensure that the company can continue to operate without significant financial difficulties.

Financial protection policies typically have no cash in value at any time and cover will cease at the end of the term. If premiums stop, then cover will lapse.
