New Pacific Life Kit Highlights How Life Insurance Can Help Business Owners Supplement Their Retirement Plans
NEWPORT BEACH, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Business owners expecting to sell their firms to help finance retirement goals are rethinking that strategy due to the recent financial crisis. A new kit for life insurance professionals from Pacific Life, "In Pursuit of Retirement: What Every Successful Business Owner Needs to Know for a Successful Retirement," details how business owners can use life insurance to help protect their retirement goals.
In addition to providing protection for heirs, life insurance death benefit can help business owners overcome the uncertainties they often face when nearing retirement, including:
- An unpredictable selling price for the business.
- The challenge of finding a ready and qualified buyer.
- Uncertainty of the buyer being able to meet any financing obligations payable to the owner selling the business.
Pacific Life's kit can help uncover and address a client's evolving needs and goals by exploring a host of business and retirement strategies using life insurance, according to Alyce Peterson, vice president of marketing services for the company's Life Insurance Division. "It's a new world when it comes to planning for retirement, especially for business owners," Peterson said. "Life insurance can help these clients overcome the challenges they may face in reaching this important financial milestone."
"In Pursuit of Retirement" features an interactive brochure that life insurance professionals can use to help match their clients' retirement goals with financial strategies, case studies to showcase sample scenarios, and fact patterns to help identify business owners who may benefit from using life insurance to reach their retirement goals. Life insurance professionals can get the kit by contacting their Pacific Life representative or by calling 866-722-9555.
