Bonus plans are a simple and effective way to help employers recruit, reward, retain, and retire key employees. It helps top talent increase their savings for the future, while helping their employer keep them for the long term. And LLC Member and S Owner plans provide death benefit protection and tax leverage without contribution limits or restrictions on compensation. The tax leverage comes with using life insurance to finance the plan, rather than it being based on a tax code provision.

This simple and cost-effective plan promises select employees that in the event of their death while covered by the plan, their named beneficiary(ies) will receive the death benefit specified under the plan. The business could purchase a life insurance policy on the key employees to help fund the liability, which could also provide key person coverage.
