May 27: Learn New Strategies for Retirement and Estate Planning

When the Federal Budget sequence changed to the Fall, it was also announced that the annual Fall Economic Statement would be moved to the spring.  So far a date has not yet been announced, but when it is, it will be covered at the May 27 CE Savvy Summit: Tax-Efficient Retirement, & Estate Planning, a live-virtual event designed for professional wealth advisors, tax professionals, accountants, and estate planners ready to expand their expertise on the effects of fiscal change on retirement and estate planning.  It’s a session you won’t want to miss if you are working with retirees in particular on their income and estate planning.  Here’s why that’s important:

What’s Changing, and Why It Matters. Recent legislative developments, shifting pension strategies, and increased complexity in trust reporting are reshaping how advisors approach client planning. From June 15 business filings to evolving estate strategies, staying current is no longer optional for those with an eye on delivering high-quality advice to clients.

In fact, increasingly planning has shifted from retirement and estate focus to a focus in between:  intergenerational wealth planning.   This important CE Summit brings together leading experts: Evelyn Jacks, Douglas Nelson, Leanne Rodrigo, and Ruth Horst, to provide practical, actionable insights into today’s most pressing planning challenges.
