Key Person Protection – Case study
Puzzlebox Marketing is an event planning company. They have an excellent reputation for offering a full complete service to meet their clients’ event needs.
Miss Mason creates events from start to finish and is locally well known for her successful planning.

If she were to become critically ill or die during the policy, their business could suffer & they could potentially lose up to 70% of their total profits.

They decided to take out a Key Person Protection Plan. This would provide the funds to deal with these problems should anything happen to Miss Mason.
