Protection for farmers Life insurance strategies should consider the cost to: Fund ongoing living costs for your family Fund ongoing farm expenses Repay or service debts (personal and business) Meet child education needs Meet medical expenses (incl. travel/accomm) Maintain savings plans Allow your partner to take time off A comprehensive life insurance strategy needs to take into account the financial needs of your family, and your farm.

Protecting your true income There’s more to income protection than reviewing your tax return... Does your spouse earn an income from the farm, and would it stop if you did? Are you re-investing profits in your farm? What are you really worth to your business? One of the questions you need to ask yourself is this – what is your true income from your farm? Sure, you can look at your latest tax return and show what you earned last year. But is that figure a true reflection of your earning potential? For example, does your spouse derive an income from the business? And would that income be there if you weren’t? Or are you reinvesting profits in your farm, rather than taking the money as income? And would those profits be there if you weren’t? When you take out life insurance, it needs to reflect what you’re really worth to your business.

What about the National Disability Insurance Scheme? Does it replace the need for life insurance? No… here’s why: Designed to help the most severely disabled people, not everyone who has a disability. Doesn’t cover temporary conditions that may occur. Such as disabilities from a car crash or from a serious illness. It’s main purpose is to give people who are severely and permanently disabled more personalised assistance and a greater connection with their community. Not financial support. Available in limited regional areas, with roll out not until 2019/2020 Even if you are eligible, it can’t help you eliminate debts, provide an replacement income or cover the out-of-pocket costs of medication and treatment. The NDIS provides a safety net, but it was not designed to replace life insurance – which continues to play a vital role in paying out debts and replacing income after the onset of disability.

This type of cover helps families eliminate debts and stay in the family home, it provides an ongoing income for a spouse and children, and it helps cover any medical bills and funeral costs. Estate equalisation is about having strategies in place to ensure the equitable passing of a family business to the next generation. Should you chose to pass on the business to one child and not the other/others, your insurance pay out can help make the value of your estate equal across all the siblings. Income replacement cover for sickness or injury. Usually known as ‘income protection’, this type of cover helps families keep up with the mortgage and everyday expenses – like school fees, electricity bills etc The premiums for income protection are generally tax-deductible

Types of cover available Total and Permanent Disablement (TPD) cover Helps eliminate debts and cover long-term care costs Pays for modifications to the family home Trauma cover for serious illness Pays out-of-pocket medical costs (including travel and accommodation costs) Helps your spouse take time off work to provide care Allows you to make lifestyle changes – like reducing work hours, or taking an extended holiday TPD covers people who suffer a total and permanent disability. This helps people who can never work again by helping them pay off their mortgage, and pay for a carer if they need one. If you’re in a wheelchair for example, it can also help pay for modifications to the family home. Trauma cover covers a number of serious illnesses, like cancer. Trauma cover helps cover the medical expenses not covered by private health insurance, which can run into the tens of thousands of dollars when you’re talking about diseases like cancer. When you live in a rural community, this benefit can also help pay for travel and accommodation costs if you have to go to the city for treatment. It can also allow a spouse to take some unpaid leave to provide care, and encourages people to make the lifestyle changes the need to recover properly – like reduce their work hours or take an extended holiday.
