If your client gifts assets to loved ones (who aren’t their spouse), there’s a risk they’d leave a large tax bill if they passed away. To make it worse, tax will be collected from the people who received the gift, rather than from the estate. This can be difficult to pay - especially if the gift is something tangible, like a home.
Our Gift Inter Vivos plan offers a lump sum paid on death. It’s aimed at your clients who have gifted assets to someone and want to cover any inheritance tax liability. It should only be used where the value of the gift exceeds the current nil rate band, or where the client has made gifts in the previous 7 years that have already exceeded the nil rate band.
Our cover offers many features, including:
There is no cash value at any time.
Your client can’t change the plan once it’s been issued.
