About the Webinar

As certain assets have their own unique tax treatment and as certain individuals can have their own unique tax situations, the after tax amount of an inheritance can differ markedly between beneficiaries. This session explores why this is so and the key considerations to navigate when crafting the succession plan. It covers:

  • Which CGT assets may be more tax friendly when left to which beneficiaries?
  • Should a “capital gains tax provision” for each CGT asset held by the willmaker be factored into the estate plan?
  • Should the personal tax attributes of each potential beneficiary be a consideration of the willmaker?
  • How CGT event K3 applying for one beneficiary’s situation can reduce the pie for the remaining beneficiaries
  • When may a special disability trust be a beneficial insertion in a will for a beneficiary?
  • Tax effectively allocating superannuation death benefits, including:
    • determining if an interdependency or financial dependant relationship exists (Tratter v Aware Super [2023] FCA 491)
  • The pros and cons of tax equalization clauses in a will (Todd v Todd & Ors [2021] SASC 36)
  • Case study
