Business Loan Repayment
The assets of a small
business may be needed to repay outstanding business loans, upon the death
of an owner. This planning method protects the personal assets of an owner,
in the event of death, while a business loan is outstanding.
In order to obtain
a business loan, many times a small business owner is required by a lending
institution to personally guarantee repayment. When a small business owner
provides a personal guarantee of a loan, the business owner's personal
assets could be in jeopardy if that owner dies while the business loan
is outstanding. Even in the absence of a personal guarantee, a creditor
may require assurance that the loan will be repaid by the business, if
the owner dies.
Advanced planning
can help to minimize the negative financial impact upon the business,
the deceased owner's family and upon any other owners.
