CMI Flexible Funding Scheme

The CMI Flexible Funding Scheme works by allowing single and/or regular premium payments over the short term, typically 3-5 years, which are then converted into regular payments over a period of 10 years that are invested into an offshore savings plan. At the end of the 10 years you choose to use the proceeds of the plan in one of the following ways:

  • as a cash lump sum;
  • as a regular income by surrendering individual policies under the plan; or
  • you can leave the proceeds invested where they continue to grow until you need it.

If you return to the UK within the 10-year payment period, the offshore savings plan proportion of the scheme may be replaced by an equivalent plan that qualifies for special treatment under UK tax law.

Although the plan is no longer open to new investors, we continue to manage this product for our existing customers. Your CMI Flexible Funding Scheme policy number will range from N500000A to N599999Z.
