NY State Insurance Department rules on "SOLI" STOLI PROMOTERS ON THE RUN Eleven states from Maine to Hawaii have now enacted legislation to protect senior citizens from fraudulent use of life insurance that promotes wagering on human life and potentially exposes seniors to unexpected taxes and legal liability. The state bills are based on model laws developed separately by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) and the National Conference of Insurance Legislators (NCOIL). CARRIERS TAKE ACTION Lincoln National sues a California physican claiming he misrepresented his circumstances when he applied for $30 million of STOLI insurance. AXA files a suit in federal court in Florida against several insurance brokers and the trustees alleging that they obtained $73 million in fraudulent Stoli policies.
Agents Fired for Selling IOLI New York Life has fired an undisclosed number of "top" agents over the past several months for selling so-called investor owned life insurance policies, according to InvestmentNews.com The company has also rescinded the policies. The move is the latest twist in efforts by insurers and regulators to prevent third parties from using life insurance as an investment wechicle rather than as a way to provide protection to families and businesses.
"If you try to circumvent insurable interest laws, you'll get caught. And if you lie or omit information from an application, then you've engaged in insurance fraud, which is punishable by jail time." Stephen Leimberg at LIMRA International's Advanced Sales Forum

OTHER NEWS New regulations for EOLI Under new IRC section 101(j), death benefits to an employer in Employer-Owned Life Insurance contracts will generally be income taxable to the employer; to the extent the proceeds exceed the premium cost. The employer must meet certain requirements in order to maintain the income-tax free status of the policy proceeds. Once such requirements are met, the employee must be given written notice and must provide written consent prior to issue of the policy.
New law may tax death benefit of EOLI A new law in the Pension Protection Act may lead to taxation of the death benefit of Employer-Owned Life Insurance. This new law will affect all policies issued after August 17, 2007 regardless of what the purpose of the life insurance is; key person, split dollar, deferred compensation, as well as employer-owned policies bought to pay debts, etc. Ask us for a sample of the forms necessary in order to avoid this problem.
