Permanent Life Insurance
Permanent life insurance provides lifelong protection and can also be an important tool for wealth and estate planning. It may be used to provide liquidity for estate taxes, protect family wealth, equalize inheritances, or support the transfer of wealth to future generations. For business owners, permanent insurance may also be structured as part of a broader corporate and succession planning strategy.
Debt and Financial Protection Insurance
Debt protection insurance can help safeguard your family's or business's financial stability when significant debt is involved. It may provide funds to help repay mortgages, loans, or other financial obligations following an unexpected death or other covered event, helping to prevent debt from becoming a burden on those left behind.
Corporate-Owned Insurance
Corporate-owned life insurance can be an effective tool for business owners looking to integrate insurance with broader tax and wealth planning strategies. Corporate funds that have already been taxed at relatively low corporate rates may be used to fund policy premiums, while the cash value of a properly structured permanent policy can grow on a tax-deferred basis within the policy.
Upon death, the life insurance proceeds received by the corporation may generate a credit to the Capital Dividend Account (CDA), which can potentially allow the proceeds, subject to applicable rules, to be distributed to shareholders as tax-free capital dividends. This can provide an effective way to create liquidity, preserve corporate wealth, and support the tax-efficient transfer of assets to the next generation.
Corporate-owned insurance may also be used to support estate planning, business succession, and the funding of future tax liabilities. The appropriate strategy will depend on the company's financial position, the owner's objectives, and the broader tax and estate plan.
Business Succession
A successful business succession plan helps protect the value of a business and provides clarity for the next generation of owners. Insurance may be used to fund buy-sell agreements, provide liquidity for ownership transfers, protect against the loss of a key shareholder, and help ensure that a business can continue operating through unexpected events.
Critical Illness Insurance
A serious illness can have a significant financial impact on a family or business. Critical illness insurance provides a lump-sum benefit following the diagnosis of a covered condition, which can be used to replace income, cover additional expenses, access care, or provide financial flexibility during recovery.
Segregated Funds
Segregated funds combine investment opportunities with insurance-based features that may complement retirement and estate planning. Depending on the contract and individual circumstances, they may provide maturity and death benefit guarantees, estate planning advantages, and potential creditor protection.
Retirement Income & Annuities
Retirement planning is about creating income that can last throughout your retirement while managing the risks associated with longevity and market uncertainty. Annuities can provide a predictable stream of income for life or for a defined period, helping create greater stability and certainty as you transition from accumulating wealth to drawing on it.
