Company directors, are you making the most of the tax-efficient way to provide life cover through your business?

For more information on the tax-efficient way to provide life cover through your business, visit our site.

Relevant Life Cover (RLC) allows employers to offer a death-in-service benefit to their employees including directors. It’s a tax-efficient life insurance policy, set up by the employer and pays out a tax-free lump sum on the death (or diagnosis of a terminal illness) of the person insured.

Are Relevant Life Plans cost-effective?

Relevant Life Plans are uniquely tailored to your specific requirements.

The cost to an employer can work out much less than the cost to an employee arranging an equivalent personal life policy.

This type of plan is usually viewed as an allowable business expense by HMRC, all premiums and paid benefits qualify for full Income Tax relief, National Insurance relief and Corporation Tax relief.

This means premiums could be reduced by up to 49% compared to a typical life policy if the employee is a higher rate taxpayer.

For a basic rate taxpayer this figure could be up to 40%

I have saved clients even more by sourcing providers that are more affordable.

A personal plan could be costing you hundreds more per year, and thousands more over the course of the term.

Get in touch if you'd like some advice.

How would you pay your bills if you couldn't work?

For most of us, being unable to work for medical reasons would present a serious financial challenge.

What would happen to you or your loved ones if you couldn’t work due to illness or injury which resulted in a loss of earnings?

How would you cover your outstanding bills like rent, mortgage or other living costs.

Income protection insurance can give you the peace of mind you deserve.

A loss of earnings could have a real financial impact on any family’s lifestyle, and income protection insurance is designed to meet the needs of people who want to protect against this, by paying out a regular monthly amount.

Life insurance is there to ensure the life you’ve built together goes on.

With the rising costs of living and less disposable income for many, life insurance could be more important then ever.

From helping to keep the roof over their heads, to paying the ever-increasing bills, life insurance means you can keep providing the things that really matter even after you're gone.
