Abstract:

A system and method for the efficient transfer of wealth is disclosed. The system and method implement a plan for the efficient transfer of wealth. The disclosed embodiments include a company computer for gathering information on the amount of wealth to be transferred from a transferor. An existing debt of a transferee is identified to be acquired by the transferor in the form of a note. According to the plan, an insurance policy having a term benefit is purchased by the transferee, and the term benefit is assigned to the transferor as an economic benefit which is credited towards the loan. The economic benefit may be determined according to, for example, published IRS Table PS58. The economic benefit may be significantly greater than the actual cost of the policy, with the spread being effectively transferred to the transferee.

International Classification:

G06F017/60

US Classification:

705/036000

Abstract:

An apparatus and method for the efficient transfer of wealth is disclosed. The method comprises a transferee securing an insurance policy having a death benefit component and a cash value component on the life of an insured. The death benefit proceeds are to be paid out at the death of the insured. A transferor obtains a loan having a principal and an interest. The principal of the loan is to be paid with the death benefit proceeds from the insurance policy. The proceeds from the loan are used to directly or indirectly obtain an income-generating investment instrument that produces periodic income. The periodic income is used to pay the interest of the loan. Rights to the death benefit component are allocated to the transferor and rights to the cash value component are allocated to a transferee. The insurance policy is funded directly or indirectly with proceeds from the loan as payment for rights to the death benefit component.

US Classification:

705/035000

Abstract:

A system and method for the efficient transfer of wealth is disclosed. The method comprises gathering information on the amount of wealth to be transferred from a transferor to a transferee; determining the amount of life insurance premium for an insurance policy on the life of an insured individual to be substantially equal to the amount of the wealth to be transferred; and appraising a present value of a cash value of the insurance policy. The policy comprises a cash value and a term benefit. The transferee owns the term benefit, and an entity owns said cash value. The entity may be owned by the transferor. The appraising is based on a mortality risk of the insured individual and a value of the cash value during each year of a projected life of the insured individual, so that an appraised value of the cash value is obtained as a basis for a sale price of the cash value, whereby the wealth may be transferred to the transferee as the cash value.
