Family Matters
Smart wealth planning isn't just about you and your financial needs. It also addresses the long-term needs of your family — both your loved ones living today and future generations.
This issue of Insights explores various ways to help your family plan better for the future. Our cover story ("5 Lessons for Creating a Family Legacy," page 8) lays out key steps for ensuring your wealth is passed along efficiently and effectively. You can read more about the family legacy meeting process mentioned above in Regions’ Perspective (page 11). And Your Business ("Next in Line," page 12) looks at tax-efficient strategies for passing along a family-owned business.
Don't postpone key conversations and decisions that will affect your family's financial future. Contact your Wealth Advisor about setting up a family legacy meeting, so you can feel confident you will have a plan in place when you need it.
