What is Estate Planning?
Effective estate planning will ensure that:
- Your assets will be managed by individuals you, not the court, select if you should become physically disabled or mentally incompetent
- Your assets will be distributed to your beneficiaries, efficiently and economically
- Transfer taxes and expenses are reduced or eliminated
- Asset values are preserved
- You leverage lifetime gifts and make maximum use of your available tax exemptions.
Planning your estate requires serious decisions, with significant financial implications for you, and your beneficiaries. That is why it is always a good idea to chose a financial consultant that exhibits commitment to their profession. The best choice is an advisor that has earned the professional designations Chartered Financial Consultant & Chartered Life Underwriter.
