Very good point, the Life Insurance adds to your estate. The simplest things we just don’t know if someone don’t tell us.
Put the Life Insurance into Trust.

Can anyone tell me the difference between life insurance and life assurance please? Mr Google says one is tax deductible and the other isn’t.

While life assurance covers you for your whole life, a standard life insurance policy usually covers you for a set term. However, some life assurance policies do allow you to finish your payments at a certain age – this varies, but tends to be around 85. Life assurance products involve an investment approach and so tend to be more complex.

I have been an IHT specialist for 16 years. Although I fully respect what Mark had to say the contents of this video are very simplistic. There is more than one type of Whole of life insurance and just using insurance is usually the most expensive way of solving the IHT problem. Also many older people have health issues which makes insurance much more expensive. A mix of different trusts, using two different types of life insurance and for people with assets of over £2 million using Family investment companies normally provides a much more flexible and lower cost solution – Good advice is essential and most IFAs do not have enough experience in this area.

My property company has just taken out a ‘Relevant Life Plan’ for the ‘Life of Another’ (me) which has been set up under trust for the benefit of my children. The premiums are paid for by the company but as the company doen’t benefit from any payout, the premiums are tax deductible.
Any payout will not form part of my estate so will be inheritance tax free.
