Estate planning often involves commonly-owned assets such as real estate, investments and retirement assets. However, some clients own unusual or unique assets, which may complicate estate planning and administration. Examples include Intellectual Property, Pet Trusts, Digital Assets, Art and Collectibles, Wine Collections, Closely-Held Businesses and Inherited Life Policies. Some are hard to preserve, access and control, while others are hard to value or transfer. Understanding the technicalities is critical in planning. Come to our workshop to learn how to serve clients with unique assets, and to identify the relevant sales opportunities.

Important tax and legal concerns for donations of complex assets – from both the donor’s and the charity’s perspectives.
How to use creative giving techniques like Donor Advised Funds and Charitable Remainder Trusts to make these asset gifts even more powerful for donors and charities.
How might charitable giving change under the new presidential administration? Will charities need to take on more public service roles previously in the governmental domain? Will charities see their public funding decrease and if so, how will their fund-raising efforts need to change?

Use of testamentary trusts for IRAs is an increasingly popular trend in estate planning - and IRAs (including IRA rollovers from qualified plans) comprise an increasing value of many individuals’ estates. What is the advisor's and carrier’s role in this planning process, and how can advanced sales support our advisors in bringing enhanced value to client relationships and relationships with allied advisors? Join us for a discussion of the types of trusts commonly designated as IRA beneficiaries, the practical implications for carriers administering contracts which name one or more trusts as an IRA beneficiary, the role and value of an advanced sales department in facilitating these processes, and the multiple sales opportunities that can be realized in this planning context.

Trusts (including the traditional “ILIT”) are ubiquitous instruments of estate, wealth transfer, and life insurance planning. However, how should today’s trusts be designed to address the contemporary circumstances, priorities and needs of individuals with or without an estate tax concern, income tax or capital gains tax concerns, and or significant non tax planning concerns? What conversations should our advisors be having with clients right now? In this climate of persistent uncertainty, how can advanced sales support preserving existing business and realizing new opportunities? Through case study approach, we will explore multifaceted approaches to robust trust design (including desirable policy characteristics and features) - which incorporate maximum flexibility to pivot with a changing tax environment, and inevitable changes in future circumstances and planning objectives.
