Topic: 

Best Practices for Beneficiary Designations

What considerations should be made when selecting a beneficiary of retirement account?  This presentation will touch on the best practices to consider and several of the choices that are available to account owners when they work their advisors to select beneficiaries for their accounts.  There are a number of factors to consider to avoid unintended consequences and to achieve the true goal of the clients estate.  Whether to minimize taxes, stretch out distributions, or preserve other more tax-advantaged assets, we will explore key ideas to help you better serve your clients with these important decisions.
