Most businesses consider taking out Key Person Insurance because they have a founder, director or employee whose loss would cause a major disruption to the business. The negative impact might include:
A Key Person policy compensates your business in the event that one of your “key people” dies, or is diagnosed with a terminal illness or critical illness. That money can then be used to cover the costs of losing that person and, where applicable, finding a replacement.

You won’t need to make any upfront commitments – it’s simply your opportunity to explore costings and find out whether it’s the right option for you.

“Luke was our advisor and he was excellent – very quick to respond to any questions and arranged our Key Person Insurance with ease.”
– Harriet Beeson
Engage Wealth Management were contacted by an IT company comprising of two directors seeking £500,000 of cover each on a Key Person scheme.
“Unfortunately, one of the directors had an adverse medical disclosure and was declined by the underwriters,” said Luke Comerford, Protection Adviser at Engage Wealth Management.
“However, we questioned this decision with the underwriter and provided additional evidence on behalf of the client.”
The underwriter ended up revising the case and overturned their decision, which meant both directors were covered by the Key Person plan, and the company was financially protected.
