CFP Series for Financial Advisors:  What Every Advisor Needs to Know about Retirement Planning in 2014

Presenter: Jonathan Mintz, Esq.
Tuesday, February 18, 2014 at 1:00 pm, E.T.

Americans hold more than $20 trillion in qualified retirement plans, all of which will be subject to ordinary income tax at withdrawal. With this much wealth tied up in assets subject to upwards of 50% tax or more, it is imperative for planners to know how to help clients minimize this tax to the extent possible. This skill set is even more critical given the increased income tax rates as compared to reduced estate tax rates and increased federal estate tax exemption. This practical session, led by nationally known attorney Jonathan A. Mintz, will explore several approaches to minimizing taxes on retirement plans, including the "holy grail" of retirement planning – potentially tax-free withdrawals from qualified plans. For your clients' sake, you don't want to miss it.

Presenter: Randy Gardner, J.D., LL.M., MBA, CPA, CFP®
Tuesday, February 11, 2014 at 1:00 pm, E.T.


Many clients look at Social Security as a government benefit when it is actually a covered worker’s investment asset to be managed optimally like any other investment asset. This overview explores commonly-seen planning situations – workers with and without spouses; advantageous claiming strategies; surviving and/or divorced spouses; taxation of Social Security benefits; the "earnings test"; and more.


 

CFP Series for Financial Advisors:  Stock Purchase Agreements

Presenter: Neel Shah, Esq.
Tuesday, January 21, 2014 at 1:00 pm, E.T.

Business owners have multiple decisions to make when contemplating the sale or purchase of their business. Each decision may have an impact on the Business Owner’s tax and legal situation, in many cases drastically.  Perhaps no decision is more important than choosing between an Asset Purchase/Sale or a Stock Purchase/Sale. Even after the decision is made, the executed agreement will provide the "rules of the game" for the transaction until the sale is consummated.

Request an Encore Presentation of this Webinar for a discussion of the nuance of a Stock Purchase & Sale Agreement.

Interdisciplinary Series for CPAs (CPE) and Financial Advisors (CFP):  Beneficiary Defective Inheritor's Trusts (BDITs)

Presenters: Christopher Riser, Esq. and Donald L. Reichert, MSFS, CLU, ChFC, AEP®, CAP
Tuesday, October 15, 2013 at 1:00 pm, E.T.

One of the more common recommendations, and at the same time one of the biggest obstacles that we as advisors face, is convincing our higher net worth clients to give away their assets, under the pretense that holding those assets at death above the lifetime exemption amounts will likely result in a significant estate tax. Despite that fact, the average entrepreneur, particularly those still in their 40s and 50s, are not inclined to give up the use of their assets for many reasons. Not the least of which is that they enjoy the feeling of security and are not “finished” with the assets at that point and time in their life. A typical approach to meet potential estate tax liabilities is a traditional irrevocable life insurance trust (ILIT). Unfortunately, the ILIT has limited utility and more often than not does not work as originally intended. A better approach and one that will significantly improve the planning flexibility and is more likely to encourage a client to move to diminish the size of the estate and reducing the tax exposure, is a beneficiary defective irrevocable trust, more commonly known as a BDIT. Properly constructed and artfully administered, this type of trust produces a high degree of economic efficiency and planning flexibility. More often than not, it will allow both the advisor and the client to engage in some serious and meaningful planning that ends up benefiting both.

The Beneficiary Defective Inheritor’s Trust (BDIT) is a valuable estate planning and asset protection tool. This webinar covers strategies including opportunity shifting, sale/loan to BDIT, and integrating life insurance into BDIT planning.


 

CPE Series for CPAs: Wills vs Trusts: Basics for CPAs

Presenters: Lewis W. Dymond, Jr., JD and Randy Gardner, J.D., LL.M., MBA, CPA, CFP®
Tuesday, September 24, 2013 at 1:00 pm, E.T.

1. Lifetime control
2. Disability planning
3. Tax planning
4. Funding -- asset titling and beneficiary designations
5. Estate administration
6. Beneficiary planning


 

CFP Series for Financial Advisors:  Rebirth of the Charitable Remainder Trust (CRT)

Presenter: David Cahoone, Esq.
Tuesday, September 17, 2013 at 1:00 pm, E.T.

In this webinar, learn how a classic resource for modern planning needs—The Charitable Remainder Trust (CRT)--can enhance your planning execution. The CRT addresses client needs in the areas of income stability, tax efficiency, philanthropy, wealth replacement, estate planning, and horizon investing. Furthermore, given today's higher tax rates and surcharges, the near-term benefits to clients have been enhanced.


 

CPE Series for CPAs: Income Tax Deductions on CLTs (Charitable Lead Trusts) and CRTs (Charitable Remainder Trusts)

Presenter: Robert S. Keebler, CPA, MST, AEP
Tuesday, August 27, 2013 at 1:00 pm, E.T.

Charitable giving will always be an important tax planning issue. With a decent understanding of the tax law regarding charitable donations, one can properly plan how much to gift and what to gift. If done correctly, charitable planning can result in a “win-win” scenario for the taxpayer and the charitable organization.

During this presentation, we cover the following topics:
 

  • Overview of tax law regarding charitable donations
  • Lifetime gifts vs. testamentary bequests
  • Benefits of gifting appreciated assets vs. cash

CFP Series for Financial Advisors: Women and Money: Changing the Conversation

Presented by Elizabeth Jetton, CFP®
Tuesday, July 9, 2013 at 1:00 pm, E.T.

While we know the research tells us that women should be a focus and control more and more of the wealth in the US, what does it really require to get them to engage with an advisor and stay the course? Based on research and the work of Directions for Women, join Elizabeth Jetton, CFP® as she discussed how advisors can be more effective in empowering, educating and engaging women around money. We include research on the value of participatory learning (group dialogues) for women to enhance engagement, confidence and learning.

CFP Series for Financial Advisors: 2013 Investment Strategies - Liability-Relative Optimization

Presented by David Blanchett, AAMS, AIFA, CFP®, CFA, CLU, ChFC
Tuesday, June 18, 2013 at 1:00 pm, E.T.

People invest to fund a goal, therefore, the risk factors associated with the goal, or liability, should be considered when building a portfolio whose objective is to achieve that goal. The concept of liability-driven investing has become increasingly popular in defined benefit plans, pensions, endowments, and foundations and now is increasingly used for target maturity and retirement income funds. In this presentation David Blanchett will touch on recent Morningstar research on liability-driven investing and explore the asset allocation differences that result from a traditional asset-only optimization framework to asset allocations built from the liability-relative optimization framework.

CFP Series for Financial Advisors: Life Expectancy & Health Care Planning

Presented by Lewis Walker, CFP®
Tuesday, May 21, 2013 at 1:00 pm, E.T.

Health care and wealth care are inextricably intertwined. Realistic estimates of health care costs in retirement are necessary in a fiduciary practice. The challenge is compounded by the lowest interest rates in decades and the potential for rising rates and galloping inflation. Life expectancy has risen 60% in the last century, which results in clients needing to save more in order to retire. Arguably, one of the key events that most greatly affects your life and the planning delivered to clients is the increase in life expectancy. In 2002, Fidelity estimated that a couple age 65 retiring in 2002 would need $160,000 to cover medical expenses, but that estimate rose to $240,000 in 2012.


 

CPE Series for CPAs: Independent Contractor vs. Employee

Presented by Randy Gardner, J.D., LL.M., MBA, CPA, CFP®
Tuesday, April 30, 2013 at 1:00 pm, E.T.

With the implementation of the Affordable Care Act, many employers shocked by insurance costs and red tape will look to independent contractors as a solution. Business owners benefit by avoiding the administrative hassles of employing workers and the out-of-pocket costs of payroll taxes and fringe benefits. With the jobless rate, although decreasing, still hovering just below 8 percent, the number of people willing to work as independent contractors at reasonable rates is high. Furthermore, working as an independent contractor rather than as an employee offers several tax advantages. This session will explore the many factors that need to be considered to make this approach work, including the document that may be the cornerstone of an independent contractor arrangement.


 

Interdisciplinary Series for CPAs (CPE) and Financial Advisors (CFP):

(2) how the tax is triggered for employers not offering coverage,
(3) how the tax is triggered for employers offering unaffordable coverage,
(4) how to calculate the tax for an employer not offering coverage,
(5) how to calculate the tax for an employer offering unaffordable coverage, and
(6) whether employers will continue to offer health care coverage or drop coverage and pay their tax liability.
Help your clients make tough decisions about whether to continue offering employer-sponsored health care coverage in 2014 and beyond.


 

CPE Series for CPAs: Asset Protecting Inherited IRAs Using Trusts

Presented by Gregory Herman-Giddens, JD, LLM, TEP, CFP®
Tuesday, February 12, 2013 at 1:00 pm, E.T.

The trillions of dollars in IRAs and qualified plans that are passed down to clients’ beneficiaries upon death could be exposed to creditors, based on many court findings. Learn how to structure asset protection for IRA beneficiaries using trusts designed specifically for the purpose of protecting them from creditors and how to ensure that the beneficiary achieves maximum tax deferral.
