Cross Border Planning for Multi-Cultural Families
In our increasingly globalized world, many people now work and reside their home countries. Planning property in these circumstances requires working with advisors familiar with multiple jurisdictions to ensure the rules and regulations of each are followed. In this session, a planner will come to understand their ethical obligations in their advice to cross-border clients.
