WHAT IS DIRECTORS LIFE INSURANCE?
Directors of Limited Companies can benefit from a policy called Relevant Life Insurance. This is an tax efficient solution tailored for company directors seeking to safeguard their family’s financial well-being. Similar to personal policies, it provides a lump sum payout to chosen beneficiaries in the unfortunate event of your passing. However, the distinguishing factor lies in who bears the policy costs. Directors have the distinct advantage of having their company shoulder the expenses, enabling them to benefit from tax-deductible premiums.
