THE NEW "MODERATELY WEALTHY”: PLANNING FOR CLIENTS WITH NET WORTH UNDER $11 MILLION
The 2017 Tax Act has shifted the focus of estate planning clients who used to be concerned about minimizing transfer taxes. Within the context of current law, clients with a net worth of under $11 million are more concerned with issues such as the following:
- Whether trusts are a necessary part of an estate plan
- Utilizing powers of appointment for income tax and non-tax purposes
- Minimizing trust level income taxes
- Ensuring the availability of basis step-up
Registration will close at 5 pm on Thursday, January 24th. Please register if you will attend to ensure we have an accurate lunch count. Thank you!
