An Insurance Tax Shelter is a plan issued by a life insurance company that allows you to deposit any amount of money and shelter all of the growth of the investment from income tax. Each insurance company gives their plan its own unique name. The plans are flexible, allowing you to vary the amount of your deposits and choose the type of investments, from GICs to investment fund indexes, with no restriction on foreign content. You can make direct withdrawals, TAX-FREE from the tax-sheltered account, up to the adjusted cost base (ACB) of the plan without incurring any tax. Simply put, the ACB is equal to your deposit less the cost of insurance. Under a special arrangement, you can leverage your account with a bank. This is the real benefit of an Insurance Tax Shelter! The leveraging of your account is what allows the plan to outperform other investment vehicles, because a loan is never taxable! [2007] - David M. Voth
