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.
Morning Matthew, Quick note about Salesh Chand. I have been extremely impressed with his actions with regard to the mutual client of ours in Auckland Abrasive Blasting and Coatings 2005 Ltd. He has been a pleasure to deal with, provided accurate information in a timely manner and most importantly is giving the client the right advice as far as I am concerned. He is very personable and I would certainly recommend his services to any ANZ client. Kind regards - Grant Clune - ANZ Relationship Manager - Auckland South
