Top 5 consequences of not having a will:

  1. You forfeit the opportunity to decide who inherits what and your Estate is distributed according to South African law. This means people who you may not have wanted to benefit from your Estate may inherit your Estate.
  2. Your Partner may be left with nothing if you are not married or your Will is not updated from a previous marriage.
  3. Your Children’s inheritance could pass to the Government Guardian’s Fund or appointed Guardian rather than to a Trust that will ensure your wishes for them are carried out.
  4. Family feuds often occur when family members argue over the distribution of your Estate when final wishes are not clearly documented in a Will.
  5. Winding up your Estate can take years – without a Will appointing a professional Executor, the government is essentially in control of the process.

THE REAL COST OF DYING

Immediate
expenses

When you pass away, your bank accounts could be frozen and your family could have limited access to money. Our Solution: Immediate Liquidity™.

Monthly living expenses

Estates can take months, if not years, to wrap up and families mistakenly assume their Estate will pay the monthly ongoing expenses such as lights, rent, groceries, etc. but the funds are often tied up until the Estate is finalised. Our Solution: Estate Overheads Protector™.

Executor’s Fees

Executors may charge up to 3.5%, excluding VAT, to administer an Estate. This could add up to hundreds of thousands of Rands which is paid from the Estate, reducing your loved ones’ inheritance. Our Solution: The Indemnity Plan™.

Testamentary Trust Fees

Minor children cannot directly inherit, which means their inheritance is managed by either their guardian or the Government Guardian’s Fund. Our Solution: We indemnify the cost of a Trust through the Indemnity Plan™.

Taxes

Most people leave their entire Estate to their Spouse, but if both of you pass away and your Children inherit everything then Capital Gains Tax and other legal fees are triggered. Our Solution: Estate Gap Cover™.
