Business Protection Is About Planning, Not Products
Business protection insurance is not about worst-case thinking. It is about ensuring the business can continue to operate, meet its obligations, and preserve value – even during unexpected events.
Before recommending any insurance, we focus on:
- Understanding how the business operates
- Identifying key people and financial dependencies
- Reviewing ownership and succession arrangements
- Assessing existing structures and agreements
- Considering self-insurance where appropriate
This allows protection to be structured deliberately, rather than reactively.
Types of Business Protection Insurance We Advise On
We provide advice across a range of business protection strategies, tailored to your business structure and goals.
Key Person Insurance
Key person insurance provides financial support to a business if a key individual becomes unable to work due to illness, injury, or death. It can help:
- Maintain cashflow during disruption
- Fund recruitment or training of replacements
- Repay business debts
- Stabilise operations during transition
Buy–Sell Insurance
Buy–sell insurance supports ownership continuity if a business owner dies, becomes disabled, or exits unexpectedly. It helps ensure:
- Remaining owners can retain control of the business
- Departing owners or their families receive fair value
- Ownership transitions occur smoothly and predictably
We work closely with legal and accounting advisers to ensure insurance aligns with buy–sell agreements.
Business Expense Insurance
Business expense insurance helps cover fixed business costs if the owner or key individual is unable to work.
This may include:
- Rent and utilities
- Staff wages
- Loan repayments
- Operational expenses
It helps keep the business running while recovery or transition takes place.
Business Debt Protection
Business debt protection insurance helps cover business loans and liabilities if an owner or key individual cannot work due to illness, injury, or death.
This reduces financial pressure and protects both the business and personal assets from unnecessary risk.
Structured to Fit Your Business
Every business is different. Protection must reflect how your business is structured and how value is created.
We consider:
- Company, trust, or partnership structures
- Number of owners and key individuals
- Existing debt and financial obligations
- Cashflow strength and volatility
- Long-term growth and succession plans
This ensures business protection insurance supports stability today and flexibility for the future.
Business Protection and Your Broader Financial Roadmap
Business protection does not sit in isolation.
We assess how protection interacts with:
- Personal insurance arrangements
- Superannuation and wealth strategies
- Lending and guarantees
- Succession and exit planning
- Family financial security
This integrated approach helps ensure business and personal financial outcomes remain aligned.
