The Fenwick household owners have decided to fund their new cross-purchase agreement with permanent life insurance. One owner wants to transfer a policy he already owns on himself to the other partners to save on premium costs.

What is the planner's most appropriate advice regarding this transfer?

  1. Recommend the transfer as it is the most cost-effective way to fund the agreement.
  2. Advise against the transfer, as it may trigger the transfer-for-value rule and estate inclusion.
  3. Suggest the transfer but only if the policy is over 3 years old to avoid Section 2035. In this case
  4. Approve the transfer as long as it is done at the policy's fair market value.
