You can insure for to a maximum benefit period of 2 years so if you could not return to work, your expenses would continue to be paid until you can find a new owner, partner or someone to come in and keep your business going.  This cover is not designed to grow your business, it is to protect your business from creditors through your contractual obligations, and keep your business operational so in the event you had to sell your business, you would not have to sell at a fire sale price.

Business Insurance

This cover should be part of your total business insurance package and to include this as part of your risk planning is wise. You want to make sure that your business can stay in good shape while you focus on making a full recovery or in a worst case scenario keeping it operational until sold.

• You can sell the business while it still holds its value

• You can implement a succession plan without having to worry about immediate expenses

• You can pay your business debts – e.g. term loan, overdraft, provisional tax and shareholder current account

• You are no worse off financially if you were unable to return to work
