On this episode, join Partners Erin Nicholls and Michael Clear as they dive into a discussion on jurisdiction selection in the context of advanced planning strategies. What does it mean to select a jurisdiction when establishing a trust and what benefits are available when considering one jurisdiction over another? Erin and Michael address these questions and more, with a primary focus on the following factors: (i) the rule against perpetuities, (ii) bifurcation of trustee duties and (iii) income tax implications. These and other factors help to determine which jurisdiction is best suited to address a client’s specific goals.
