Key Person Insurance

Key person insurance is simply life insurance on the key person in a business. In a small business, this is usually the owner, the founders or perhaps a key employee or two. These are the people who are crucial to a business--the ones whose absence would sink the company. You need key person insurance on those people. Key person term life works by a company purchasing a life insurance policy on a key employee, pays the premiums and is the beneficiary of the policy. If that person unexpectedly dies, the company receives the insurance payoff. The purpose of key man life insurance is to help the company survive the blow of losing the person who makes the business work.

The company can use the insurance proceeds for expenses until it can find a replacement person, or, if necessary, pay off debts, distribute money to investors, pay severance to employees and close the business down in an orderly manner. In a tragic situation, key person life insurance gives the company some options other than immediate bankruptcy.

Nonqualified deferred compensation plan
To overcome the limits of qualified retirement plans, many employers are offering top executives something extra – a non-qualified deferred compensation plan. Under this voluntary arrangement, each selected executive elects to defer a certain amount of future income (deferral can be salary or bonus). Upon retirement, you pay the executive his or her deferred compensation as additional retirement income.
