How to help business owners protect their income

U.K. figures show that life and critical illness cover for business owners has been largely ignored. But, if a business is doing well, they need insurance to protect profits. Not doing well? They need to protect their overdrafts and loans.

Telling a client they have a missing page in their shareholders’ agreement when it doesn’t include critical illness insurance has been a terrific idea for me — and a savior for many businesses over the years. Saying “it’s normal business practice” is a great way to underline our advice.
