Course Overview

How to maximize wealth in your life and transfer tax efficiently to future generations?

These two goals are at the heart of financial and estate planning; however, to achieve them you’ll need to find an optimal balance between the two taxation systems that govern wealth: income taxes and transfer taxes (gift/estate).

In this CE/CPE course, the speaker will discuss how planning during a lifetime can reduce estate taxes.  

Financial planners will understand the significance of making gifts, setting up trusts, and obtaining life insurance to assist clients in a position to best protect their families. This planning is emphasized to assist clients in reaching their financial planning goals. We help planners understand the differences between taxable estate and probate estate.

Major Topics Covered:

  • The Estate Planning Process
  • Financial Planner’s Role in Estate Planning Process
  • Probate vs Taxable Estate
  • Strategies During Lifetime to Reduce the Probate and Taxable Estate
  • Gifting Strategies Using Charitable Trusts
  • Corporate Transparency Act (CTA)

This CE/CPE Tax webinar includes valuable tools and checklists including a discussion of how planners can use essential information for comprehensive financial planning.

Michael Boyle, AFSP

This was a very informative course. It is an invaluable introductory course on the elements of taxable gifts and estates. The treatment of planning strategies was very well done – not just for financial planners, but also providing a structure for tax planning. I needed the refresher on the generation skipping tax. Well done.

Mr. Bergstein was a wonderful presenter - very informative and knowledgeable. I'm not a financial planner so this was relatively new to me but nonetheless this was an incredibly interesting webinar. Thank you, Mr. Berstein!
