2017 NEW INSURANCE RULES; huge potential to save taxes prior to the deadline…

Toronto

Time sensitive…

Attention business owners! In January 2017, corporate insurance rules will be amended, that will severely limit your ability to invest tax efficiently within your policy. What does this mean for you – a potentially larger income tax liability. If a corporate insurance strategy fits within your long-term financial plan, then time is of the essence.

We invite you to join us for our upcoming complimentary workshop we call the “Lunch & Learn” series. Each month we will be introducing new and interesting topics. Invest just 60 minutes and it could save you and your family tens of thousands.

This event took place at the Thornhill Golf & Country Club on Mon. Aug. 29th, 2016 between 12:00 and 1:00pm.

You will learn:

  • How to get money out of your corporation tax free
  • Why you will need to act prior to January 2017
  • How you can reduce or eliminate estate erosion
  • How your estate can avoid being taxed at the highest marginal tax rate
  • How to take action today
