Special purpose insurance limited liability companies (LLCs) have become increasing popular and utilized in buy-sell planning.  LLCs have been used for a long time and have only gained in popularity, with many advisors viewing them as the “go to” entity when structuring buy sell arrangements. Every state now has an LLC statute and special purpose LLCs have been increasingly used in business continuation planning and funding.

This book covers the waterfront on all of the tricky issues advisors need to master, including:

• Transfer-For-Value issues in light of the final TFV regulations
• Tax benefits of using a Special Purpose Buy-Sell Insurance LLC
• Creditor protection with Special Purpose Buy-Sell Insurance LLC
• Premium payments and allocations among the members
• Valuing the insurance LLC membership interest upon death

Best of all, this book comes with specimen documents, including a sample operating company buy-sell agreement as well as a sample special purpose buy-sell operating agreement!

Here’s what Bob Keebler says about this book:

Leimberg’s new book, The Special Purpose Buy-Sell Insurance LLC, is a must-read resource for anyone helping clients with insurance-funded buy-sell agreements. It not only makes a strong case for using a special purpose LLC, but also provides what you’ll need to put the plan into action. I plan to keep my copy handy.
