  1. Wealth Transfer Planning Using Private Financing A Fair Market Loan Arrangement Between Family Members Prepared for Valued Client & Valued Client

  2. The Concern • Your estate will be subject to estate tax at death. • Gifts of large premiums to a trust may be subject to gift tax.

  3. The Solution • Establish fair market loan arrangement between you and an ILIT. • Make gifts of annual loan interest only, or defer interest. • Repay loan at death from life insurance, or during lifetime from other funds. Trusts should be drafted by an attorney familiar with such matters in order to take into account income and estate tax laws (including the generation-skipping tax). Failure to do so could result in adverse tax treatment of trust proceeds.

  4. How It Works • Your trust borrows the funds to pay premiums from you. • You can lend the amount needed annually, or lend an amount based on a schedule of premiums or a lump sum amount. • You make annual premium gifts to the trust to cover loan interest payments, if any.

  5. How It Works Total Loan to ILIT = $1,700,140 The Client Family ILIT Total Gifts to ILIT = $660,000 Note & Loan Interest Payments Total Premiums $2,501,895 Outstanding Loan in Yr. 30 $3,243,338 Life Insurance Death Benefit $9,257,379 Death Benefit in Yr. 15 $9,257,379 Total Trust Assets in Yr. 15 $10,646,454 Death Benefit in Yr. 15 $7,403,116 Net To The Heirs $7,403,116 Total Side Fund in ILIT in Yr. 15 $0
