Insurance
Funded Death Benefit Plan
A Death Benefit plan is a "non-qualified" plan where your company
agrees to pay a death benefit equal to two times your salary for one of
your designated heirs. It is non-qualified because you do not
have to offer this plan to all employees and
you can discriminate in favor of officers and directors. Your business
can purchase life insurance to fund all or a portion of the benefit.
