What is Cash Flow banking?

Cashflow Banking or Cash Flow Banking is a strategy used to describe a way to capture the opportunity cost on your cash flow as it moves through your life. The banking aspect refers to the way you can transactionally access this stored cash flow from the cash values of a life insurance contract where it has been accumulated as a reservoir of capital. By stockpiling cash flow into a flexible cash value life insurance contract you create liquidity. When accessed strategically in combination with good habits this can be a revolutionary system for Canadians.

Keep in mind, this type of program only works effectively as long as the policy owner has good habits and a high level of discipline. That is, they can return the capital they have used back to the policy. If this is done effectively the overall values of the cash asset and the estate value can be increased when following some core principles and working with a good coach to assist them.

Cash flow banking from life insurance – How to borrow

The process of borrowing money from life insurance is extremely simple. Most companies have a very simple policy loan form that is typically one or two pages long. It requires some key information such as, the policy number, how much you want to borrow, the current policy loan interest rate of the life company, the owner's signature and date as well as the owner's social insurance number or the corporate business number. Once these forms are completed and sent to either the advisors office or to the life company, funds can be directly deposited or a cheque sent in the mail. It is even possible for a policy owner with some companies to call in directly and request up to $25,000 of a policy loan over the telephone once they have correctly verified their identity.

Alternatively, a person can pledge their cash value as collateral to a 3rd party banking institution and get a collateral assignment. They are socially assigning the cash values as collateral for a bank loan or operating line of credit. The policy owner will still need to qualify for this loan with a third party lender including credit checks and debt servicing calculations. These rules can adjust from time to time as lending criteria changes. Whereas, accessing capital from the life company directly is referred to as an unstructured loan where the policy owner has total control over the repayments terms of any policy loan.

How is cash flow banking similar to infinite banking?

Infinite banking system and cash flow banking both entail employing a correctly designed whole life insurance policy as a personal banking system. The main parallels are as follows:

  1. Both make use of the whole life insurance policy's cash value growth as a source of funding and liquidity.
  2. Policyholders borrow against the cash value of their life insurance policy rather than regular bank loans. By doing this, they can access money while maintaining the cash value invested and accelerating growth that is tax-deferred. Its “infinite” or eternal nature stems from the fact that it may be constantly borrowed against the same monetary value, which increases even as money is borrowed against it.
  3. Both approaches intentionally overfund and structure the policy to maximize the whole life policy's cash value increase.
  4. The idea is to use this cash value as a personal banking system to manage your wealth and avoid traditional finance fees for things like large purchases, investments, and income needs.
