1. Is YOUR BUSINESS PROTECTED?
EXPERT GUIDE Wealth Management Hong Kong
Is YOUR business PROTECTED, after all you insure your home, your car, and in some cases
your yacht, but what about YOUR BUSINSS!
Isn’t it strange that the very thing that provides the money for your home, your car, and your
yacht is probably not insured, we are of course talking about “YOUR BUSINESS”.
Every business is only as good as, and depends upon its “People”. It's the people in the business
that have the ideas, create the contacts, and make the sales; which leads to increasing revenue
and profits for your business; which in turn pays the salaries that provide for your homes, cars
and yachts. It follows that by insuring the “People” within a business, we are in fact insuring the
survival of the business; YOUR BUSINESS, together with your possessions and future lifestyle.
We hope you will find our “Business Protection Guide” informative, and that it highlights

BUSINESS. Our guide is intentionally generic and therefore individual questions may arise that

What Is Business Protection and Business Succession Planning
Influence, ideas, decisions, contacts and ultimately profit are driven by a relatively small number
of people within a business.
Key Person Protection
An insurance policy taken out by a business to compensate that business for financial losses that
would arise from the death or extended incapacity of the member of the business specified on the
policy (The Key Person and / or the Company Directors and Partnership Shareholders). The aim
is to compensate the business for business losses and facilitate business continuity.
Loan Protection
Insurance for anyone involved in guaranteeing business loans or banking facilities (The
Company Directors and Partnership Shareholders). The value of insurance coverage is arranged
to equal the value of the guarantee.
Private Limited Companies and Partnership Shareholder “Buy / Sell” Agreements
A buy-sell agreement, also known as a buyout agreement, this is a binding agreement between
co-owners of a business (The Company Directors and Partnership Shareholders) that governs
what happens if a co-owner dies or is otherwise forced to leave the business, or chooses to leave
the business. It may be thought of as a sort of premarital agreement between business partners /
shareholders
Relevant Life Cover – Director / Shareholder “Death In Service” Benefits
Where the policy pays a designated beneficiary for example the deceased family, a sum of
money upon the death of the insured person (The Key Person and / or the Company Directors
and Partnership Shareholders).

The Facts
Almost everybody knows someone who has suffered a heart attack, heart bypass, cancer or a
stroke. With improvements in modern medicine leading to higher recovery rates, Critical Illness
cover can pay out a TAX FREE lump sum of money if you are diagnosed as having contracted a
critical illness.
Critical Illness “The Facts”
• You are 5 times more likely to suffer from a critical illness than to die before your
retirement.
• 1 in 4 men and 1 in 5 women will contract one of the illnesses covered by a standard
critical illness policy before they reach 70 years of age.
• 95% of strokes occur in people aged 45 and older. From age 55 the rate of strokes
doubles every 10 years.
Hong Kong
• Cancer accounts for 75.5% of critical illness claims, with the average age being 43.7
years old.
• 6% of all claims are for strokes, with an average age of 47.5.

As a shareholder in your business you have probably spent your time and money building your
business over time. This has produced and income stream for you and your family to live on and
enjoy a certain lifestyle.
It has also of course produced an “Equity Value”; but how much is this worth and just as
importantly in the event of your premature death how and when will your family and dependents
receive the equity value in cash. The problem is the equity value is “Locked-up” within your
business (its the machines, the buildings, the stock and WIP, its the goodwill). How can you get
this value out in cash in the event of your premature death so your family can carry on
financially?
Has your business today got sufficient capital to buy your shares at their “TRUE” value?

Mr John Smith (CEO Operations)
(20% shareholding) is 45 years old and is married with a young family. Simon age 5 and
Julie age 4. His wife Sandra aged 30 looks after the home, and has not worked for some 8
years; while she has looked after the family.
Historical Context
December 2010
During a business trip by Susan Jones to a key account holder in Europe; on the return journey
Susan has a Heart Attack. The prognosis is favourable and she will return to work in 8 weeks.
John Smith dies of a heart attack leaving his wife and children without an income.
Out of respect ABC Ltd closes for 2 weeks.
January 2011
David Jones (The CFO) reopens the family business recognising the Directors responsibility to
their employees and customers; who although understanding, also have their own businesses to
operate.
The Current Situation
1. On David Jones return to work; Sandra Smith is waiting in his office with her 20%
shares, demanding a seat on the board on FULL Directors salary and benefits.
2. Susan Jones was responsible for the major account in Europe (representing some 82% of
new business and 45% ongoing turnover). The European Key Account holder (James
Everard) is waiting in the board room concerned about the continuity of the business
relationship.
3. In the interim James has suspended all transactions over the last 10 days; and his latest
memorandum stated that he would review matters in “3 months”. He is looking for
reassurance from David.
4. ABC Ltd bankers who introduced James to ABC Ltd, are aware of the significance of the
European business, and have scheduled a meeting with David at 2 pm.
5. Meanwhile Sandra’s friends and family are suggesting that she sells her shares valued at
20% of the business currently (20,000,000 x 20%) 4,000,000 USD.

EXPERT GUIDE Wealth Management Hong Kong
Extrapolating The Situation
1. “On David Jones return to work; Mrs Sandra Smith is waiting in his office with her 20%
shares, demanding a seat on the board on FULL Directors salary and benefits”.
David the surviving Director of ABC Ltd certainly did not want to welcome Sandra to his
board (after all he has built and managed the business since 1995). Sandra has not worked
for some 8 years; and has no experience or qualifications to manage a business.
While, Sandra’s husband John Smith had planned that his shareholding on his retirement
or his premature death could be sold to provide a cash lump sum of money for his family.
2. Susan Jones was responsible for the major account in Europe (representing some 82% of
new business and 45% ongoing). The European Key Account (James Everard) holder is
waiting in the board room concerned about the continuity of the business relationship.
This is a major problem as Susan is the CEO regarding sales for ABC Ltd; and has a
close working relationship with James Everard. Without Susan it is doubtful that the
account can be secured.
3. In the interim James has suspended all transactions over the last 10 days; and his latest
memorandum stated that he would review matters in “3 months”; as his relationship was
with Susan.
Again this highlights the business issues surrounding the loss of a “Key Person”.
4. ABC Ltd bankers who introduced James to ABC Ltd, are aware of the significance of the
European business, and have scheduled a meeting with David at 2 pm.
Cash flow is the “Life Blood” of any business; in particular when the “Bankers” come
looking for money. ABC Ltd currently has 275,000 USD in cash, but a bank loan of
1,250,000 USD – what are they going to do?
5. Meanwhile Sandra’s friends and family are suggesting that she sells her shares valued at
20% of the business currently (20,000,000 x 20%) 4,000,000 USD.
The problem for Susan is that although the shares “Technically” might be valued at
4,000,000 USD; her 20% is a minority shareholding in a limited company. The shares
therefore have limited marketability / value.

This is not what John Smith had planned for his shareholding in the business. He wanted
it to provide for the ongoing financial security for his family.
Protecting YOUR Business
Fortunately David Jones (The CFO) was very experienced in business matters.
David had consulted with a leading Wealth Manager Gary Williams some years previously.
January 14th
David contact the Companies Wealth Manager – Gary Williams – who in the previous 10 days
had been in constant contact with the claims department of the insurance company holding ABC
ltd (Contingency Plan) policies; that he arranged for the Directors some 3 years ago.
January 15th – 22nd
1. “On David Jones return to work; Mrs Sandra Smith is waiting in his office with her
20% shares, demanding a seat on the board on FULL Directors salary and benefits”.
Meanwhile Sandra’s friends and family are suggesting that she sells her shares
valued at 20% of the business currently (20,000,000 x 20%) 4,000,000 USD.
A payment 4,000,000 USD is credited to ABC Ltd bank account from an “Shareholder
protection” contract set up by Gary Williams; allowing automatic payment (buy-out) of a
shareholder on their premature death by the remaining shareholders
This allows David to buy the 20% shareholding from Sandra – without impacting on
ABD Ltd cash flow - and removing Sandra’s forlorn hope of a position on the board of
ABC Ltd.
This puts David firmly back in control of his business; with no interference from Sandra.
It also carries out John Smith’s wishes for the ongoing security of his family.
While, Sandra’s husband John Smith had planned that his shareholding on his retirement
or his premature death could be sold to provide a cash lump sum of money for his family.

2. Susan Jones was responsible for the major account in Europe (representing some
82% of new business and 45% ongoing). The European Key Account (James
Everard) holder is waiting in the board room concerned about the continuity of the
business relationship.
An additional 4,000,000 USD is credited to ABC Ltd bank as David arranged through
Gary Williams insurance in the event of a major account manager (Susan Jones)
contracting a critical illness (Heart Attack); this provides cash to the business to
compensate for the losses caused by Susan’s absence. On Susan’s return to work in 8
weeks time, she can make arrangements to secure the contract with James Everard.
Here Gary Williams put in place “Keyman Protection” to provide “Cash Flow”, and time
to recover the relationship with James and secure the ongoing European business (45% of
current turnover).
3. ABC Ltd bankers who introduced James to ABC Ltd, are aware of the significance of
the European business, and have scheduled a meeting with David at 2 pm.
A further amount is credited to ABC Ltd bank account for 1,500,000 USD from the
insurance policy set up by Gary Williams 3 years ago. This amount is more than enough
to settle the outstanding current liabilities with the bank (1,250,000 USD).
David being a prudent CFO; arranged “Loan Protection” on ABC Ltd current liabilities
with their bank.
Relevant Life Cover
Director / Shareholder “Death In Service” Benefits
David also arranged through Gary Williams the Director’s “Personal Death In Service”
life insurance. This paid out on John Smith’s premature death a sum of 1,000,000 USD;
this provided additional financial security for David’s family in their time of need – just
as David had planned for.
This adds to John Smith’s wishes for the provision of the ongoing financial security of his
family.
While, Sandra’s husband John Smith had planned that his shareholding on his retirement
or his premature death could be sold to provide a cash lump sum of money for his family.

So Where Are We
Do You Have A “Contingency Plan” for YOUR BUSINESS
When a Shareholder (A shareholding Director or Partner in your business) or as Key Person,
leaves your business it is usually for one of the following reasons
1. Premature Death – resulting in their permanent absence.
2. A Critical Illness – resulting in their retirement or period / permanent absence.
3. Their Retirement – resulting in their permanent absence.
All three events can cause a catastrophic “Cash Flow” crisis within any business; here is a
reminder why:
Premature Death – Sudden departure from the business
• Loss of expertise
• Loss of orders
• Loss of revenue
• Purchase of the shareholders shares to regain control of your business
• Corporate responsibility to shareholder and shareholder’s family
At this time; an injection of CASH can be critical to your business’s survival. When a business
suffers a catastrophic event “CASH FLOW” is “ECCENTIAL” for the business’s survival.
Critical Illness – Sudden departure from the business
• Loss of expertise
• Loss of orders
• Loss of revenue
• Purchase of the shareholders shares to regain control of your business if permanent.
• Corporate responsibility to shareholder and shareholder’s family
At this time; an injection of CASH can be critical to your business’s survival. When a business
suffers a catastrophic event “CASH FLOW” is “ECCENTIAL” for the business’s survival.

Retirement – Departure from the business
• Purchase of the shareholders shares to regain control of your business
• Loss of expertise
• Loss of orders
• Loss of revenue
• Corporate responsibility to shareholder and shareholder’s family
At this time; an injection of CASH can be critical to your business’s survival. When a business
suffers a catastrophic event “CASH FLOW” is “ECCENTIAL” for the business’s survival.
When the CASH is needed it can be provided at a fraction of the cost of the “Critical event”. In
addition should the event not occur the “Contingency Plan” will have built up a CASH value that
bolsters a company’s Balance Sheet – saliently with a CASH VALUE – which can be drawdown
or borrowed against.
So will your Contingency Plan - help your business. Well;
• It mitigates any loss of revenue
• It provides the means to purchase the shareholders shares to regain control of your
business
• It provides “Cash Flow” (the “Life Blood: of any business) to repay loans
• It builds your companies “Balance Sheet” with a CASH VALUE
• You can drawdown (with draw the cash value) at anytime.
• You can borrow against the CASH VALUE
So What Have We Learned
The critical events of a shareholder or Key Manager suddenly leaving your business through
premature death, contracting a critical illness or on their retirement can be mitigated by the use
of Financial Investments.
In addition should the critical events not occur, the Financial Investments have a CASH VALUE
which builds up your businesses “OFF Balance Sheet VALUE” which can be utilised just as if it
were CASH.
