Key Person Business Insurance in Florida: Term vs. Whole Life<\/h2>\n

Key person business insurance pays the business a death benefit if a key employee dies, and pays disability benefits only where the policy provides them.<\/strong> The business owns the policy, pays the premiums, and receives the benefit. Term coverage lasts for a set period and usually costs less at the start. Whole life lasts for the insured’s life and builds cash value, but it needs closer review. The right choice depends on the business’s goals, cash flow, and tax position.<\/p>\n

What Key Person Insurance Is and Who Needs It<\/h2>\n

Key person business insurance compensates a business for financial losses caused by the death or disability of a key employee, according to the Insurance Information Institute’s guide to life insurance for key employees<\/a>.<\/p>\n

A key person is someone the company would struggle to replace. That might be a founder, a top salesperson, a lead engineer, or a partner who brings in major clients.<\/p>\n

Business owners may consider this coverage when one person carries much of the revenue.<\/p>\n
