Mitigating Against Inheritance Tax - Insurance Policy

in #inheritance5 years ago

If you don't want to give away your assets while you're still alive, another option is to take out life cover, which can pay out an amount equal to your estimated Inheritance Tax liability on death. It's essential that the policy is written in an appropriate trust, so that it pays out outside your estate.
One option could be to purchase a whole-of-life assurance policy, designed to provide funds to the beneficiaries of your estate in the event of your death, to meet the cost of any Inheritance Tax bill payable.
