Relevant Life Insurance.

Secure the financial future of your loved ones with Relevant Life Insurance. Specifically designed for small businesses, contractors, and directors, this coverage provides a tax-efficient way to offer life insurance benefits.

What is Relevant Life Insurance?

Relevant life insurance is a tax-efficient way for a business to take out life insurance for an individual employee. It provides an alternative route for an employer to offer death-in-service benefits to employees outside of a registered group life scheme.

Why consider a Relevant Life plan?
  • A small employer might not have enough employees to justify a group scheme.
  • Relevant Life plans can provide a lump sum payment in case of a terminal diagnosis or death.
  • These plans can be transferred to individuals if they leave their employer and are portable.
  • Relevant Life plans appeal to high-earners with substantial pension funds because the benefits don’t count towards their Lifetime Allowance – the maximum amount that can be drawn from a pension scheme.

Relevant Life Insurance FAQs

What is covered by Relevant Life Insurance?

The coverage includes death benefits, which are paid out as a tax-free lump sum. Some policies also include terminal illness cover, meaning if the insured is diagnosed with a terminal illness and has less than 12 months to live, the benefit can be paid out early.

Relevant life insurance does not cover critical illness, disability, or unemployment; it solely provides financial protection in the event of the insured employee’s death or terminal illness diagnosis.

The cost of relevant life insurance can vary based on several factors, including the age, health, and lifestyle of the employee, the amount of coverage, the term of the policy, and the insurance provider.

Key Factors Influencing Cost:
  • Age: Younger employees generally have lower premiums because they are considered lower risk.
  • Health: Healthier individuals with no pre-existing conditions typically receive lower rates. Insurers often require a medical examination or detailed health questionnaire.
  • Lifestyle: Non-smokers and those with healthy lifestyles usually benefit from lower premiums.
  • Coverage Amount: Higher sums assured will lead to higher premiums.
  • Policy Term: Longer policy terms can increase the total cost, although annual premiums might be lower.
  • Occupation: Jobs with higher risk may result in higher premiums.

We recommend booking a benefit consultation. That way, we can find out more about you and your circumstances.
