LIFE INSURANCE POLICY - FOR YOUR BROTHERIf you are someone's Brother - you probably have other things on your mind than thinking about getting a Life Insurance policy. However, maybe having loving responsibilities as a sibling means you should still consider looking at the peace of mind Life Insurance or Critical Illness will do to help protect a family if you have one or mortgage. Life Insurance & Insurable InterestInsurable interest means - that you could be adversely affected financially if that person ( your Brother ) who is insured died. The reasoning behind insurable interest is so that the death of an insured person may not create personal financial gain ( than loss ) for a policyholder. Can I buy a Life Insurance Policy for my Brother ?Yes - but UK Insurance rules state there must be an insurable interest between a brother & another family member to arrange a life insurance policy. You don't have to be married to get a life insurance on someone eg; a joint mortgage Can I get a Life Insurance on my Brother without him knowing ?No - both parties must consent to this arrangement ie; you cannot just apply on your brothers behalf without their knowledge. Can I put my Brother on my Life Insurance Policy ?As above - UK Insurance rules state there must be an insurable interest between yourself and brother to add him to your life insurance policy. He can always arrange a policy for himself. Can I get Life Insurance Policy for a Step Brother or Brother in Law ?Yes - But only as mentioned if there is still an insurable interest between you & your step brother or brother in law eg; you perhaps have a joint mortgage or loan. Note that they could always arrange a policy for themselves. But they must consent to arranging the life insurance policy & with their full knowledge. Can my Brother be my Life Insurance Beneficiary ?Yes he can - if you wish to. Either your Brother can own your life insurance plan directly; classed as life of another [ see comments above re Insurable interest ]. Note if you had a family split up though, this can cause issues with the insurer having to undue this arrangement & may require additional legal costs by you seeking specialist advice. The alternative is to put the policy into trust where your Brother is either one of or the sole beneficiary. Can a Brother be my Trustee on my Life Insurance Policy ?Yes he can - if you wish to.
