Insurance Premium Financing

The Advantages of Insurance
Premium Financing             



For high net-worth individuals and families, life insurance is an integral part of estate, wealth, and succession planning. The premiums for these policies can create a significant cash obligation. Life insurance premium financing enables individuals, companies and trusts to use leverage to effectively manage that obligation. The Private Bank at Commerce Trust can help high net worth clients acquire the life insurance they need while maintaining access to their personal capital and liquidity.

Life insurance premium finance can allow an insurance policy holder to:

  • Utilize a valuable tool to complement wealth transfer planning for the next generation or support business succession planning
  • Avoid liquidating current assets, which could mitigate potential tax exposure risk
  • Maximize insurance coverage while optimizing cash flow
  • Access liquidity at an interest rate that may be less than the return on their current assets
