SESSION 1: TAX ISSUES IN MANAGING CAPITAL ASSETS
Learn the details behind the Spring 2021 federal budget provisions and how they will affect the ten tactics for sound retirement income planning in a post-pandemic world. Take an in depth look at the tax benefits of acquiring pensions, financial, non-financial, and business assets, and the tax consequences of disposing of 15 unique categories of assets.
SESSION 2: PRE-RETIREMENT - PERSONAL PENSION PLANNING
The tax-assisted savings opportunities Canadians have, from RRSP, TFSA, JSPP, EPSP, DPSP, RCA, PRPP, RESP, MEPP, RRIF, etc, are all relatively recent in comparison to the registered pension plan or RPP. How do they fit together in planning for a business owner? In particular, consider the advantages registered pension plans have over the more traditional registered retirement savings plan and how pension legislation protects the assets of business owners in different contexts.

SESSION 3 RETIREMENT INCOME LAYERING & PORTFOLIO RISK MANAGEMENT
Because there is a tax event at death – a deemed disposition of assets – retirement planning requires a clear understanding of the valuation of assets and how to protect them from punitive taxes that can erode more than 50% of their value. Tax efficiency in pre- and post-retirement is about managing that risk in advance by planning the best time to transfer ownership of those assets – in life or at death – and then to continue to realize on their growth potential. Find out more in this fascinating session. Additional Educational Resources: Tax Efficient Retirement Income Planning and Behavioural Finance in Risk Management

SESSION 4 AFTER RETIREMENT: ESTATE PLANNING WITH LIFE INSURANCE
Did you know that if a minor beneficiary is named as a beneficiary on a life insurance policy the insurer must pay the funds into court or to a public trustee? But if instead a trustee of a life insurance trust is named, the funds can be received and managed by the trustee, providing flexibility and control. Learn more about the situations in which an insurance trust may be useful in estate planning. Additional Educational Resources: Use of Trusts in Tax and Estate Planning
1:45 - 2:10
SESSION 5: WORKING WITH EXECUTORS
Learn when income is reportable on a trust return after death, including CPP Death Benefits, investment income, pensions, and income from business ventures and how to enable executors with their responsibilities. Additional Educational Resources: Filing T3 Returns
