The Tax Relief, Unemployment Insurance Reauthorization, and Job Creation Act of 2010, signed December 17, 2010, made some marked changes to the estate and gift tax laws expiring at the end of 2012. This webinar will address changes that create gifting and estate planning opportunities for succession planning. The presentation also will examine how employee stock ownership plans (ESOPs) can be used by private business owners to transfer ownership, reward employees and create a legacy.

Learning Objectives

Upon completion of this webinar, participants will be able to:

  • Discuss certain estate and gift planning opportunities in relation to succession planning
  • Explain when an ESOP can be a good fit for solving succession issues in privately held businesses
  • Distinguish the tax and nontax benefits associated with an ESOP and how those benefits can enhance a sale to an ESOP
