WAY Estate Transfer Plan

WAY Estate Transfer Plan

The WAY Estate Transfer Plan is an offshore insurance Bond consisting of a series of non-surrenderable unit-linked single premium endowment life assurance policies.


The Bond will be divided into 400 identical individual policies of the same amount, as long as the initial investment in each of the policies is a minimum of £125. The Bond is denominated in Sterling.


The premium will be invested in the funds managed by WAY Fund Managers which are selected from time to time by the policyholder or the appointed Adviser.


The bond aims to:

  • To provide capital growth over the medium to long- term.
  • To provide the option to take the proceeds of sequential maturing policies from the Bond and the option to extend the maturity dates of those policies.
  • To provide a sum assured payable on the death of the life assured.
  • To reduce potential inheritance tax liabilities.
