Many planners may finally given up on the idea of planning with offshore entities in the time of FATCA and transparency. However, offshore planning is alive and well. Offshore entities can help with asset protection planning, tax planning for inbound investments, pre-immigration planning, diversification of assets, and international estate planning. Max and Alex will discuss the ins and outs of offshore planning in today’s world (as well as the related due diligence and reporting requirements) to allow wealth planning advisors to identify possible pitfalls and to make educated decisions.

The two biggest risks to a systematic withdrawal plan are inflation, and something known as “sequence-of-return risks”. Sequence-of-returns risk is the risk of receiving lower or negative returns early in a period when withdrawals are made from an individual’s underlying investments. The order or sequence of investment returns is a primary concern for retirees who are living off the income and capital of their investments.
Another misconception we see is people think that legacy planning is “just for the kids.” However, legacy planning is actually MOST important for the surviving spouse. Going from married to single tax brackets, the standard deduction is cut in half, marginal brackets shrink, and overall taxes go up dramatically. Added to which, losing one of the two Social Security payments and potential pensions, income is almost always reduced as well. So taxes go up and income goes down for a surviving purpose.
