Session 1 | Mind the gap. When estate planning meets the reality of incapacity and death | Lisa Monaco

We're all well versed in estate planning, but what happens when life doesn't follow the plan? This seminar looks at the hidden gaps when incapacity crosses paths with the reality of paperwork, and the post-death gaps that are uncovered after probate. Join us as we work through where the plan starts to unravel, what's missing in the documentation, and how to close the gaps before your clients fall through.

Session 2 | Investing through the noise | John Ryan

There feels like more than any time previously, a range of different views on where the economy is headed. Your clients will be looking to you to be the cool head in these changing times. John will discuss what is topical for your clients, providing some logic and evidence to support keeping emotion at the door during these times.

Session 4 |

The 30% minimum tax on discretionary trusts | Daniel Taborsky

The 30% minimum tax on discretionary trusts is proposed to apply from 1 July 2028, and will change how family trusts are taxed and how succession is planned for years to come. In this session, we will work through how the minimum tax will apply in practice, the options open to trustees (electing to distribute on fixed proportions to pre-nominated beneficiaries, restructuring, or accepting the minimum tax) and what each means for succession planning.
