Business Protection
Because your business deserves a safety net.
You’ve worked hard to build your business — but what happens if the unexpected happens? Business protection ensures your company survives and thrives, even through life’s curveballs.
Because your business deserves a safety net.
From key person insurance to succession planning, we help ensure your business survives unexpected challenges and thrives for years to come.

Key Person Insurance
Protects your business if a key employee, founder, or owner becomes ill, disabled, or passes away.
Why it matters:
-
Losing a key person can mean lost revenue, lost clients, and difficulty attracting investors.
-
This coverage provides funds to replace expertise, stabilize finances, and reassure stakeholders.
Did you know?
📊 In Canada, many small businesses close within a year of losing a key owner or manager because they didn’t have protection in place.

Cross-Purchase (Criss-Cross) Insurance
Protects business partners by funding the purchase of each other’s shares if one partner passes away.
Why it matters:
-
Without a plan, surviving partners may not have the money to buy out the deceased partner’s shares.
-
The deceased partner’s family could end up with ownership stakes but no business experience.
Example:
Two partners each own 50% of a business. If one dies, insurance pays the other partner tax-free funds to buy the deceased partner’s shares — ensuring business continuity and financial security for the family.

Business Continuity Planning
Helps your business keep running when the unexpected happens.
-
Covers costs of maintaining operations.
-
Provides confidence to lenders, suppliers, and clients that the business will continue.
Did you know?
🔍 Many lenders in Ontario require proof of a continuity plan before approving major financing.

Buy-Sell Agreements
Ensures smooth ownership transitions and that the right people are financially secure.
-
Establishes how ownership is transferred if a partner dies, becomes disabled, or exits.
-
Provides liquidity to fund buyouts, avoiding forced sales of business assets.
Did you know?
💡 Without a Buy-Sell Agreement, family members may inherit shares but be forced to sell quickly — often at a fraction of their true value.
