Mr. and Mrs. G, French residents, want to move to Portugal to retire near their daughter. To prepare for estate transfer and protect assets, they take out unit-linked life insurance policies in France with a Luxembourg company. This allows them to keep the policies if they move to Portugal. The policies provide tax efficiency, investment options, ability to change beneficiaries, and flexibility to adapt to different legal and tax environments when moving countries. Surrender or payments are taxed differently in each country.
