Slide 15
Asset Protector: key advantages
Investment Extreme flexibility in choice of investments (real estate, unlisted securities, physical gold, other assets e.g. yacht or an art collection)
Inheritance planning The policy (underlying assets) does not fall into the policyholder’s estate in event of death of the (last) insured person
Structuring Beneficiaries may be added and/or changed while multiple lives assured ensure continuity
Asset Protection 1 Protection in event of insolvency of the policyholder (depends on country)
Asset Protection 2 Protection in event of insolvency of life insurer – policyholder assets form a separate estate (regulated by law)
Tax optimisation No tax payable within policy – deferment of taxable event (can vary according to domicile of policyholder)

Slide 16
Asset Protector vs bank account
Same as bank:• Possible to retain the same custodian bank• Possible to retain the same asset manager and investment
strategy
Better than a bank:• No EU withholding tax in Asset Protector• No tax on interest and dividends• Optimisation / deferment inheritance tax• Assets protected in event of insolvency of policyholder• Better structuring possibilities (beneficiaries)

Slide 17
Life Insurance vs TrustExact same benefits as a Trust, just cheaper and more flexible:• Application form (Trust foundation documents)• Policy document (Trust Deed / By-Laws)• Policyholder nominates the beneficiaries (Board of the Trust)• Surrender of policy (liquidation of the Trust)• Policy can be pledged as security against a loan (not possible
with a Trust)

Slide 23
Liechtenstein - Security
Art 59a of the Liechtenstein Insurance Act states that in event of insolvency of a life insurer, policyholder assets shall form a separate estate in accordance with the Art 45 of the Insolvency Act.
In event of insolvency of a life insurer all policyholder assests are therefore fully protected from creditors.
