As the
number of high net worth individuals continues to increase,
so too does the need to effectively protect and manage this
wealth. Every year, new vehicles are developed; none more
so than through the use of charitable structures. The ability
to understand these structures is essential in ensuring that
charities exercise good governance.
Day one explores
and assesses the use of philanthropy in international wealth
protection. To maximise both the social and financial aspects
of planned giving to not-for-profit organisations and charities,
there are a number of factors that need to be considered.
Speakers during day one address key topics such as: venture
philanthropy, corporate governance of charities and the fiduciary
duties of trustees. Emphasis is on the international aspects
of planned giving, looking in particular at the US and several
jurisdictions within the EU. The purpose is to highlight both
the structures and the solutions of wealth management through
charitable organisations.
Day two focuses
specifically on family wealth and business planning. To remain
viable, family-owned businesses often need to operate globally.
The families themselves have become multinational with diversity
of nationality and tax residence among the family members.
Specialised approaches are required to effectively counsel
the international family business and its owners. Through
a live case study, our panel of speakers will illustrate practical
planning and counselling techniques for the multinational
family and its cross-border business enterprises.
