Why do we need Keyman Insurance?
The business needs to survive and continue beyond this impact. The business success and business continuity depends on continued income to cover the income lost.
To offset this possible loss of profit or drop in income, the company purchases a life insurance policy on that key person. This key man life insurance policy can be an accident policy, term life, whole life insurance policy or the highest paying policy, the investment-linked life insurance policy. The AIA insurance protection plan with low premiums is the term life policy.
The company will be paying the premiums for this risk, the key man risk insurance policy. And the beneficiary is the company.
The insurance proceeds can be used to pay off debts, distribute as income and to be used as how the company sees fit. Under Malaysian tax regulations, the proceeds cannot be paid to the key person or their family directly.
There are other tax implications. If the keyman insurance is an accident or term insurance, then the premium paid is allowed to be deducted as an expense. Do note that there must be zero investment elements in these policies. However the proceeds will be taxable because the premiums were deductible earlier
If the keyman insurance is whole life or investment-linked insurance policy, the premium paid cannot be deducted as an expense. This is because there is an element of investment and it is treated as an asset. The proceeds will not be taxable.
