It would be fair to say that everyone wants to pay as little tax as they are legally required to, and everyone wants to protect the assets they have worked so hard to attain (e.g. family home, savings). So how do you do this? Should you set up a company? A trust? Both? Neither?
The answer is asset planning, and done right, it ensures both tax and asset protection objectives are met in the best way possible. A good asset plan also considers estate planning (who will get your assets when you die?).
A holistic approach is vital in achieving the optimal outcome – and that’s the tricky part. It’s complex process that requires expert knowledge to implement.
In this video, Matthew Gilligan and Anthony Lipscombe explain what asset planning is, and how to ensure your affairs are set up correctly to obtain the best result for your personal circumstances.
Thanks for a great night at your property information seminar last night. Both my husband and I thoroughly enjoyed what Matthew had to talk about and we learnt a great a lot. We have recently joined GRA for our accounting services and are in the process of changing structures with trusts etc. Whilst its only early days everyone so far we have dealt with has been fantastic and we feel we are in great hands with GRA to not only manage our affairs but to also help to grow our wealth moving forward. We look forward to joining you at property school next year! - Amanda C, November 2018
