Canada Insurance Broker: Secure Your Retirement Plan With Life Insurance

As people in Canada enter into the 2011 RRSP season, thoughts naturally switch to investing and saving for their retirement. If you are thinking of putting away a lot more money into your Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP), have you also thought of taking a closer look at your life insurance coverage?

Life Insurance is a corner stone of any good financial plan. It gives families and business owners with risk protection they very much need to protect their love ones, their incomes, and business interests. For many Canadian clients, life insurance is viewed|perceived} as a necessity, and the cheaper they can get their premiums the better. This is occasionally a great way for the needs of pure risk protection however, it does't address the need for insurance long-term.

Why would I need life insurance if I am already old and have already paid off all debts?

There are many reasons you would still need life insurance, and having a healthy retirement plan is one of them. Millions of Canadians own permanent life insurance to protect themselves from life risks today but also as a financial planning method for the future. There is no better guaranteed investment product over the course of your life with a guaranteed rate of return built in. It is the most cost effective way of creating tax free revenue for your estate when you pass away.

What would a large amount of tax free cash be used for by your estate?

You got plenty of options paying off estate taxes created by unused RRSP or RRIF funds; capital profits taxes on investments like non-registered accounts and revenue properties; leaving a legacy to your children and grand-children; or supporting a charity through a final gift of insurance money.

Saving money and making a stable retirement plan, either through your RRSPs, investments or business interests creates a long-term tax load that will inevitably need to be dealt with. Many of these taxes are on hold until death of the owner (or last surviving spouse with regards to RRSPs and other assets that can roll over to the surviving spouse). Planning for the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) to be a beneficiary of your estate is the LEAST efficient plan you can create. Although life insurance is not the only way to solving estate issues, it is normally a basic part of any good estate plan. Working with an accountant and estate lawyer to plan out your affairs would be a very good strategy if you have developed considerable wealth in the course of your life.

So, to conclude, when you prepare your retirement plan for adding to your RRSPs, you are planning out your wealth building strategy. If you are good at saving and investing and have built up a large amount of assets/wealth, either personal or business investments, you have a growing estate problem, mainly in the form of taxation. If you are in good health and can buy life insurance today, it might be the most economical means to make funding options for your estate or business when you pass away.
