Chief executive of Lombard International Assurance, Axel Hörger, acknowledged that HNWIs “have significant responsibilities and so providing liquidity at the right time is essential to ensure that their legacies continue.”
The International Life Plan is being made available to UK and German residents and to UK non-domiciliaries with UK obligations.
Among the target audience for the service will be those HNWIs carrying out succession planning where inheritance tax is likely to play a key role.
The UK recently introduced legislation that brings residential property within the scope of inheritance tax for non-domiciled individuals, whether they are UK resident or not.
