Course Description

The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 brought changes to the income and estate tax provisions of the Internal Revenue Code significantly affecting the financial industry. Key for private equity firms and hedge funds is the change to taxation of the so-called “carried interest,” which is a staple of the arrangements these funds make with their investors. On the wealth management side, changes to deductibility of certain expenses and the transfer (estate and gift) tax regime are cause for those in the private wealth industry to formulate plans for both themselves and their clients.
 

Learning Objectives

  • Enhance the viewer’s knowledge of the various ways to structure partnership profits interests.

  • Educate the viewer about changes to the “carried interest,” deductibility of interest on business loans, and deductibility of investment management fees under the TCJA.

  • Help the viewer understand how the Section 199A deduction gets applied to taxpayers in private equity funds.

  • Show the viewer how to properly structure planning options, such as management fee waivers.
