ABOUT THE PROGRAM
With so much uncertainty in the world, clients who are able to leverage the largest gift/estate tax exemption in history may be more reluctant than ever to irrevocably give away their assets — even if they know it will benefit their estates/family in the long run. This session will explore:

  • The advantages of making gifts today given the current market environment
  • Ways to create flexibility with irrevocable trusts to help alleviate client concerns using loans that leverage some of the lowest AFRs in history as an alternative.
  • Providing a “wait-and-see” strategy that gives clients the power to decide when and if to make a gift
