LIFE INSURANCE FOR MY PARENTS

Life Insurance & Insurable Interest

Insurable interest means - that you could be adversely affected financially ( not emotionally ) if that person who are 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 Parents ?

Yes - but UK Insurance rules state there must be an insurable interest between yourselves & your parents to take out and arrange a joint life insurance policy eg; say a joint mortgage with your parents. Each Parent could always arrange a policy for themselves. Also both parties must consent to this arrangement.

Can I get an Inheritance Tax [ IHT ] Life Insurance Policy - on my Parents 

For some parents, their children may face a potential IHT liability on their death. This often concerns children more than their parents [ as they have to pay the IHT bill ]. So as long as their parents agree & consent to this arrangement - you can look into various options such as a joint life 2nd death plan whole lifecover plan or other IHT life insurance policies.

Can I insure my Parents - without them knowing ?

No - both parties must consent to this arrangement ie; you cannot just insure your parents & say apply for life insurance on your mother's behalf without their knowledge.

Can I put my elderely Parents on my Life Insurance Policy ?

As above - Insurance rules state there must be an insurable interest between all parties to add them to your life insurance policy.

Can your Parents be your Life Insurance Beneficiary ?

Yes they can - if you wish to. Either they can own your life insurance plan directly; classed as life of another [ see comments above re Insurable interest ]. Note if they die before you 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 Parents is either one of or the sole beneficiary.

Can my Parents be my Trustee on my Life Insurance Policy ?

Yes they can - if you wish to. If you put the policy into trust where your Parents is either one of, or the sole beneficiary. Either they can be sole Trustee or as they are older than you, have 2 or more Trustees ideally. Note again if you don't & they die first, this can cause issues with the insurer having to undue this arrangement & may require additional legal costs by you seeking specialist advice. 

Can I get Life Insurance Policy for a Business Partner ?

Yes - as a Business Partner as long as there is insurable interest between each partner to arrange a life insurance policy. Each Partner could always arrange a policy for themselves. Also both parties must consent to this arrangement ie; you cannot just apply on someone's behalf without their knowledge.
