What is business protection?

Business protection could help client owned businesses continue to trade should a key person or business owner die or become terminally or critically* ill. Proceeds from the policy could help ensure that key individuals are replaced, corporate debt is protected and shares from the deceased partner's/director's estate are purchased.

Many believe arranging business protection to be a lengthy and complicated process. But actually, the principles are similar to any other type of protection.

The most significant differences are:

• Business protection generally incorporates higher sums assured.
• A claim may be paid to a business, not a family member.
