Capital Report
This presentation will be an up-to-the-minute status of changes in federal tax law affecting estate planning. The primary focus will be on significant changes proposed by the Biden Administration, particularly the proposal to tax unrealized capital gains at death and upon gifts and other events. Other topics will include the status of the 2026 “sunset” of 2017 changes, the contemplated “anti-abuse” exception to the “anti-clawback” regulations for gifts that trigger inclusion in the gross estate, and the possible relaxation (or expansion) of the 2015 “consistent basis” rules.
