Key man insurance

If your business relies heavily on one or two members of staff, there can be serious consequences for the business if they become ill or die. Small businesses in particular are often dependent upon a key person for generating sales, managing a vital client or are simply reliant upon the key person's expertise.

What is Key man insurance?

Key man insurance helps safeguard a business against the financial effects of death, terminal illness, or if taken critical illness of a key person. The loss of a key person may result in reduced sales, loss of profit/turnover, wasted time, recruitment costs, the disruption of development plans or increased workloads for remaining staff.
