Families · the insurance wrapper for a portfolio

Your portfolio lives within a wrapper that will outlive you.

PPLI is a private insurance wrapper for an investment portfolio. The assets remain yours and work as before, but they are held within a recognised, regulated insurance policy: growth accrues with tax deferral, reporting is reduced to a single instrument, and to your heirs the capital passes cleanly — without the scattering of accounts they would otherwise have to untangle themselves.

When this is your situation

What the House does

The House places your investment portfolio within a private life-insurance policy — a recognised, regulated instrument, not a homemade construction. The assets go on working to your investment strategy, but they are now held within a single wrapper: with deferral on growth, with privacy of ownership and with a pre-set order of passage to your heirs.

What you get: a PPLI policy in the chosen jurisdiction (minimum premium from $1M) · transfer of the portfolio into the wrapper with the managers preserved · appointment of beneficiaries outside a public division · reporting under one instrument instead of a scattering of accounts.

Why this way and not another

Deferral on growth

What stands in the way today

What worries you — and the House’s answer

Where this leads

The family’s portfolio is held within a single recognised wrapper: growth accrues without annual friction, reporting is reduced to one instrument, ownership is private. And when the time comes to pass the capital to heirs, it passes under the policy — cleanly and quietly, without a public division and without a scattering of accounts they would have to assemble anew.
