This is a reminder of an often overlooked reason life insurance for Business owners is important. Business life insurance for the key person in a business can be the critical protection needed and is something often overlooked in planning a new or growing business.

Sadly, I have seen several situations where a business was started years ago. The business partners worked hard and their business thrived and grew. Then, unexpectedly, one of the partners passed away. The loss of a partner can be devastating enough but to not have adequate life insurance coverage can further leave business they worked so hard for, in disarray.

Individuals can get several types of coverage and the amount of coverage is generally based on need, expenses and assets. For businesses there is another consideration for life insurance, the use of key person's insurance and a succession plan.

The reason this coverage is important is because the death of a key person in a small company can cause the subsequent death of that company also. It is critical for a business to get guidance about a succession plan and how to achieve that.

The purpose of key person insurance is to help the company survive the blow of losing the person who makes the business work. With key person insurance policies, a company purchases a life insurance policy on its key employee(s), it pays the premiums and is the beneficiary of the policy. In the event of death, the company receives the insurance payoff.
