		Second-to-Die or Survivorship Life Insurance
		A second-to-die life insurance policy insures the lives of two people, typically a husband and a wife. The death benefit is not paid to the beneficiary until the death of the second insured. These life insurance policies are generally available as either whole life insurance or universal life insurance policies, and premiums are often less expensive than buying two life insurance policies. Second-to-die life insurance policies are effective tools often used by wealthy individuals in estate planning. They can be used to pay for estate taxes. By removing the proceeds of a life insurance policy through the use of gifting policies and third party ownership, a life insurance policy can be used to pay for estate taxes. Careful planning by your tax and legal counsel, coupled with a properly structured second-to-die life insurance policy, can help you preserve your net worth.
