Split-Dollar Plan Overview

Obtaining life insurance on an executive can be used to attract and retain key talent!

To help illustrate how a Split-Dollar strategy works, Mezrah Consulting created the following example:

Mezrah Consulting has proposed the utilization of a split-dollar group term carve-out plan (replace all group term life insurance over $50k) whereby a 2x salary life insurance benefit is provided to the participants by way of an endorsement split-dollar arrangement.

Loan regime Split Dollar Chart-1
The net premium expense is the cost associated with the remaining $50,000 of group term coverage per participant.
Note: Assumes 80 participants, average executive age of 52, average executive salary of $250,000, current group term life insurance (GTLI) cost per $1,000 of benefit of $0.062, proposed Split-Dollar benefit amount of 2x salary less $50,000 of group term, 3% annual growth on group term life annual premiums and a 26.5% corporate tax rate.
