Definition of 'Charitable Split-Dollar Insurance Plan'

Identical to a standard split-dollar insurance plan, except that a charity, instead of an employer, owns the life insurance policy. Charitable split-dollar insurance plans pay death benefit proceeds to the beneficiaries of the donor, just as standard plans pay proceeds to the beneficiaries of the employee.
