Partnership Protection
Why is there a need for partnership protection?
A partnership is defined in section 1 of the Partnership Act 1890 as “the relationship which exists between persons carrying on business in common with a view of profit, other than by way of membership of a body corporate.” There is no longer any limit as to the number of partners a business can have.
Key Person Protection
As a business you understand the need to manage the risks you face everyday – insuring stock, equipment and transport against fire, flood and theft. But most don’t cover their most valuable assets – their people.
Shareholder Protection
Is there a need for shareholder protection?
If shareholders are in any doubt as to the answer to this question, then a review of the Company’s Articles of Association will highlight the need for protection to be taken out.
Tax Efficient Protection
Relevant life policies – Get the taxman to help pay for cover
A relevant life policy is a single life, standalone death-in-service, providing benefits on an individual basis.
Business Wills/Trusts
All the shareholders involved in the shareholder protection arrangement should execute wills to ensure their intended beneficiaries receive the proceeds free of any intestacy delays. Those involved should also bear in mind that their shares will typically qualify for 100% Business Property.
