Executive Benefits
The success of most businesses is tied into the talent, passion and work ethics of their
key executives. Executive benefit packages can help you attract, motivate, and retain
high-caliber employees and keep your company healthy and stable. Our agents can help you
fund non-qualified plans, supplemental employee retirement plans, split dollar plans, and
more.
Employee Benefits
Selecting the right benefit package is becoming increasingly important in retaining the
best employees, and keeping them productive. Our agents strive to know and understand your
complete financial situation and provide you with the highest quality of information,
products, and services to help you reach your goals. Our clients rest assured knowing that
they always have their interests at heart.
Focusing on your objectives, budget and culture, they work with you to custom design
funding options for your group benefits, qualified retirement plans, and voluntary benefits
plans to address your employees’ unique needs.
Succession Planning
Succession planning allows owners to leave their business on their own timeframe while
preparing their company to be transferred to family members, key employees, an outside
party, or even a charity. This must be done in a way that helps to achieve personal
financial security, maintains harmony, and achieves maximum value for the business.
Key Person Insurance
Key person life insurance offers a death benefit that helps indemnifies an employer for the
loss of one of its most important assets - the key person. This can help assure continuity
of the business for employees, customers and creditors, and protects against losses in
sales, momentum, and credit. It can also be used to help recruit and develop a replacement
for the employee.
Funding Buy-Sell Agreements
A buy–sell agreement is a legally binding agreement between co-owners of a business that
governs the situation if a co-owner dies or leaves the business, whether by force or by
choice. A funded cross-purchase buy-sell plan utilizes life insurance to help ensure that
the arrangement is properly funded so that there will be money when the event is triggered.
Funding Deferred Compensation
Deferred compensation is a written agreement between an employer and an employee where the
employee chooses to have part of his or her compensation withheld by the company, invested
on their behalf, and distributed back to them at a pre-determined point in the future.
Deferred compensation can be used as a flexible way to attract and incentivize key
employees.
