Insured Family Legacy

Target Market

Target: Grandparents that are concerned about their children’s and grandchildren’s future. They have money that is idle or are not using all their retirement income due to excessive RMDs or pensions.

Age(s):

  • Generation 1 (Grandparent/Owner): 60 – 75
  • Generation 2 (Child/Insured): 30 – 50
  • Generation 3 (Grandchild/Beneficiary): 1+

Budget/Premium: Generation 1 (Grandparent/Owner) should be able to commit to $12,000/yr for 10 years

How it Works:

  1. Generation 1 (Grandparent/Owner) purchases a permanent life insurance policy insuring their adult child (Generation 2). As the owners of this policy, Generation 1 has the flexibility to access cash values if their needs change during their lifetime.
  2. Upon Generation 1’s death, a multigenerational trust, created by Generation 1, becomes the owner and beneficiary of the life insurance policy.
  3. The income beneficiaries of the multigenerational trust can include the adult children (Generation 2) and/or the grandchildren (Generation 3). The trustee can access the policy cash values as outlined in the trust, based upon the planning goals and wishes (e.g., support and education funding) of Generation 1.
  4. The trust receives the death benefit at the insured’s (Generation 2’s) death providing a legacy designed to have an enduring impact for the grandchildren (Generation 3).
