The primary beneficiary holds the first claim to inherit assets, with the secondary beneficiary acting as a contingency plan. This dual designation provides a clear and effective strategy, offering an alternative recipient for assets in unforeseen circumstances. Adding a beneficiary is a proactive step for the security and efficient transfer of your assets. This ensures a well-defined plan for the distribution of wealth in the event of your passing.\
