Re: Key Man Insurance

It really depends on what you are using keyman for there are four categories of loss for which Keyman Insurance can provide compensation:

1. Losses related to the extended period when a key person is unable to work, to provide temporary personnel and, if necessary to finance the recruitment and training of a replacement.
2. Insurance to protect profits. For example, offsetting lost income from lost sales, losses resulting from the delay or cancellation of any business project that the key person was involved in, loss of opportunity to expand, loss of spe******ed skills or knowledge.
3. Insurance to protect shareholders or partnership interests. Typically this is insurance to enable shareholdings or partnership interests to be purchased by existing shareholders or partners.
4. Insurance for anyone involved in guaranteeing businesses loans or banking facilities. The value of insurance cover is arranged to equal the value of the guarantee given by the key person.

I agree with the previous comment that it is not used as much as it use to be but in some cases you may find it irreplacable.
