U.S. Income Taxes: What 2013 Might Bring and What You Need to do About It Now

Tuesday, April 3, 2012
12:00 PM-1:30 PM
 

Speaker
Robert N. Gordon
Twenty-First Securities Corporation

Getting an early start on planning for various income tax scenarios is even more important this year than most because we won’t know what’s going on with tax rates until very late in the year. The lame duck U.S. Congress will only come to an agreement on tax rates for 2013 and beyond sometime between the presidential election in November and December 31st. That leaves a very narrow window of opportunity. If you wait until the facts are known, it will be too late to sit down and figure out how best to analyze any ramifications.

With this in mind, what can be done before year-end to best position a taxable portfolio for the future? What might be lost by not exploring those possibilities? Should a client take gains? Defer deductions? These actions could have a meaningful effect on a client’s bottom line and cannot be done in haste or ignored because time did not allow a full exploration of the possibilities.

Join us on April 3, 2012 for a luncheon meeting regarding ideas that have been developed through years of experience by Robert Gordon of Twenty-First Securities.
