DESCRIPTION:\n \n \nINGs and Spousal Lifetime Access Non-Grantor Trusts (SLANTs) – Not Just for State Income Tax Avoidance: How “INGs” and “SLANTs” Can Save State Income Taxes and Why Tax Reform Makes Them Even More Powerful \n4:30 to 5:30 PM \n  \n \n \n \n \n \nIncomplete Gift, Non-Grantor Trusts ("INGs") have been steadily increasing in use. The reduction in deduction for state and local income taxes (SALT) and continuingly favorable court decisions will only make them more so. Additionally, the doubling of estate/gift/GST exemption, greater tax shifting opportunities, the de facto elimination of the charitable deduction for many and the new 20% deduction for qualified business income may also cause an increase in the use of completed gift non-grantor trusts, (when's the last time you considered one of those!).

Any ill effects of a withdrawal power can not only be counteracted but even turned into an advantage over other trust designs. A 50-state comparison chart will be included which summarizes the various state asset protection statutes and law around powers of withdrawal and lapses. \n    \nNote:  Both presentations qualify for 1-hour of CE for MCLE, CPA, Professional Fiduciary and Trust Officers.  Both presentations are pending approval for 1-hour CE with the CFP Board of Standards.  Due to time constraints, neither program qualify for continuing education credit for life insurance.  ------\n\n \n \nEdwin Morrow III\nRegional Wealth Strategist for the Eastern U.S.\n US Bank Private Wealth Management\n    \n \nEd is currently the Regional Wealth Strategist for the eastern U.S. for U.S. Bank's Private Wealth Management, where he concentrates on thought leadership and planning ideas for high net worth clientele in tax, asset protection and estate planning areas.
