This module focuses on the taxes that specifically impact estates, trusts, and wealth transfers. The origins of these taxes are explored as well as their intentions. Taxes for beneficial owners are more complex than they are for most Canadians. With an understanding of these taxes and one’s beneficial asset holdings, beneficiaries can work more productively with their advisory team. To this end, students will begin to learn about the tax landscape they face and how to take a more strategic approach through tax planning.
