CHANGES IN ESTATE AND BUSINESS PLANNING NEEDS Estate Planning: A single insured's policy is no longer appropriate - a survivorship policy is more preferable - 1035 exchange rule is avoided. There is a reduction in estate size due to loss of net worth or completion of estate planning techniques and less insurance is required to fund projected estate tax liability. A policy needs to be removed from an estate. The three-year-rule can be avoided by using the proceeds to repurchase a new policy outside the estate. Business Changes: Key person policy is no longer needed due to retirement or change in business structure. Buy/Sell funding is no longer required. Policy is entangled in litigation. Business owns policies that are performing poorly. Bankruptcy causes liquidation of assets. Deferred compensation programs have changed. Personal Planning: Policy has not met original illustrated values and premiums have to be increased or policy will lapse. The sale of a policy allows for current distribution of funds. Divorce changes desired need for life insurance. Personal financial situation makes premium payments unaffordable. Funds can be used to pay down loans or outstanding debt. Charitable Organization: Charity is paying premiums on gifted policies. Before a policy is gifted to a charity for its value, it can be sold for a possible higher donation and write-off for the donor. QUALIFYING FOR POLICY PURCHASE: Minimum face amount of $100,000 Type of Policy: The good news is there is now a choice to access those funds today. People now have a choice and do not necessarily need to be locked into a insurance program that does not meet their lifestyle or present needs.
