Corporate Life Insurance Partnership Insurance Calculator

Our Partnership Insurance Calculator helps business owners estimate how much Life, Total and Permanent Disability (TPD) and Trauma insurance each partner may need to protect the business, fund a buy-sell arrangement, manage shared debts, and support families if a serious illness, injury or death occurs. It matters because underinsurance can force a rushed sale, create disputes over value, or leave the remaining partner and family exposed to business and personal financial stress. The calculator is a planning tool only and does not provide personal advice.

To get the best estimate, complete the form in this order.

1. Business or partnership name and industry

These fields help you label scenarios and keep records, especially if you run multiple entities.

2. Estimated business value

Enter a realistic current value. This is used to estimate each partner’s equity and potential buy-sell funding need. If you have a recent valuation, use it rather than a guess.

3. Total business debt or liabilities

Include business loans, overdrafts and other liabilities that may need to be cleared or refinanced if a partner cannot work. Understating debts can materially understate the suggested cover.

4. Business continuity or revenue disruption period

Select the months that best reflect how long the business may be impacted if a partner dies or becomes disabled. Longer disruption generally increases the suggested protection.

5. Buy-sell or valuation buffer

If available, add a buffer for valuation movement and transaction costs such as legal expenses.

6. Add each partner

Use Add partner and enter each person’s share of the business, income and responsibilities. Complete every partner for balanced results and to avoid gaps in buy-sell funding.

7. Calculate and interpret results

Select Calculate recommended cover to view suggested Life, TPD and Trauma sums insured per partner. Treat outputs as indicative only: insurer definitions, underwriting, waiting periods, ownership structure, tax treatment and buy-sell wording can change what is appropriate. Use the JSON summary to share assumptions with your adviser or insurance specialist for a tailored recommendation before acting.
