Program Overview
This webinar will look at financial planning in light of President Biden’s proposals on capital gains, estate planning, and taxation. With taxes potentially going up, life insurance can play many critical roles in planning for this new environment. Combining life insurance with the revolutionary new world of trusts can produce an unbeatable financial combination for many of our clients.
You Will Learn:
- How President Biden’s proposals are designed to raise taxes significantly, particularly with regard to capital gains and estate taxes
- How life insurance can provide benefits and avoid these proposed tax increases
- How the new trust environment allows clients to enjoy income and capital from assets without incurring estate or generation-skipping taxes
- Why life insurance is the new planning “hub” in this new tax environment
