Business Protection
Safeguard the Future of Your Company
What happens to your business if a key employee, director, or shareholder unexpectedly passes away or becomes critically ill? Business Protection Insurance provides essential financial support to help your business continue in challenging times—whether replacing lost income, protecting ownership, or settling debts.
At Alphakey Mortgages, we offer whole-of-market access to business protection solutions across the UK. From sole traders to limited companies and partnerships, we’ll help you choose the right cover to protect your people, profits, and continuity.
Business Protection FAQs
Why does my business need protection insurance?
Without financial protection, the loss of a key person could threaten operations, profitability, or ownership. Insurance provides critical funds to keep the business stable.
Can small businesses get business protection?
Yes. Business protection is valuable for businesses of all sizes—whether you’re a sole trader, partnership, or limited company.
Is business protection tax-deductible?
Some policies (like relevant life cover) may qualify for tax relief. We’ll work alongside your accountant to explore potential tax efficiencies.
What’s the difference between key person and shareholder protection?
Key person insurance covers business loss from losing a key employee. Shareholder protection provides funds to buy out a deceased shareholder’s stake.
How much cover does my business need?
This depends on factors like business value, debt levels, and key person contributions. We’ll assess your needs and recommend suitable cover amounts.
