Recorded Webinar: Only the Good Die Young: Effective Estate Planning for Generation Y Families
Date/Time
About the Webinar
Estate planning is more often seen as the domain of the baby boomers as they shuffle off to the next life. However, with increasing assets, debts and young children, Generation Y should be taking more interest in estate planning, particularly in the event of unexpected death of one partner. This session will provide a guide to practitioners on estate planning issues for a younger generation, including:
- What are the key considerations and goals in estate planning for a younger family?
- Analysing the impact of death on the younger family and anticipating future needs
- Essential insurance cover - who should have what cover and should it be held inside or outside the super scheme?
- Why intestacy is a problem and key matters to be included in the will, including Child Maintenance Trusts under s 102AG of the ITAA
- How can superannuation proceeds be most effectively left to dependent family members and in what form?
- Insurance and super death benefits trusts
- Tax issues and other financial considerations, including concessions for minors
- Anticipating and minimising risks where there is a family business operated by one or both partners
- Powers of attorney and other tools for future planning
