Why is Luxembourg ideal for investing?
Better protection
Luxembourg life insurance offers a high level of security and protection for the money invested.
In Luxembourg, the insurance creditor benefits from something called “super privilege”, which means that they are a first ranking creditor. The customer’s money is deposited in a bank outside of the insurance company.
Excellent diversification
Luxembourg life insurance offers great diversification starting with the choice of currency of the policy, which may be different from the Euro.

Luxembourg life insurance is very popular with expatriates as it allows you to not be taxed twice.

How does “super privilege” work under Luxembourg law?
When comparing life insurance in Luxembourg to life insurance in France, it plays a prominent role. “Super privilege” offers great security. It allows the policyholder of a Luxembourg life insurance policy to be a first ranking creditor in case of default of the insurance company. Therefore, in the event of a crisis, the client who has taken out a life insurance policy under Luxembourg law will be the first of the creditors to get their money back, up to 100%.
This major advantage is made possible by an organisation of banking and financial institutions specific to Luxembourg.
Luxembourg insurance companies have an obligation to separate their own funds, the assets of their shareholders, and assets belonging to their clients. They deposit the sums of money placed by savers with approved depositary banks.
The so-called “triangle of security” protection system allows the creditor to be reimbursed for the full amount of their investment if the insurer goes bankrupt. This is a key difference between the French and Luxembourg life insurance policies. If you have a French life insurance policy and your insurance company goes bankrupt, the policyholder will only receive a maximum reimbursement of €70,000.
What is Luxembourg life insurance?
The principle of the Luxembourg life insurance policy is identical to that of a French one. In return for sums of money (premiums) paid into the policy by the policyholder, an insurer agrees to pay a capital sum to a person previously designated in the beneficiary clause upon the death of the policyholder.
The “Triangle of Security”
Luxembourg law has established a strict system to protect invested capital. It helps make Luxembourg life insurance a secure means of financial investment. The matching contribution in the contract can be made by a single initial payment when taking out the policy and also by additional payments thereafter. Contribution in securities is also possible (listed or unlisted securities). This advantage is specific to the Luxembourg law policy and very popular with the policyholders. It is a “tailor-made” policy with features that can be adapted according to the policyholder’s country of origin or their host country if they are an expatriate. The duration of the policy is most often unlimited, meaning a lifetime.
However, a fixed term may be mentioned in the policy. The currency is your choice. It is possible to take out a policy in a foreign currency, the one that will be used for purchases, transfers, and transmissions to beneficiaries. It is a great advantage for expatriates who do not want to be exposed to currency risk. The most represented currencies are the euro, dollar, Swiss franc, and British pound.
