Friends Provident International (FPI) has unveiled a series of online seminars which are designed to educate and support advisers in relation to inheritance tax (IHT) and trusts.
The seminars are aimed at UK-based IFAs who have, or are considering working with, UK-domiciled clients who may be interested in using offshore bonds. They cover a range of topics, including IHT planning options, and different trust structures and their IHT treatments.
"The series of IHT online seminars is designed to guide advisers through the IHT maze," said Irvine Baxter, UK sales director at FPI.
"IHT and trusts are often seen as complex subjects. The seminars are designed to be an easy way for advisers to increase their knowledge, which in turn will help them advise their clients on how to mitigate their IHT liability."
The seminars are presented in pre-recorded modules, which can be found on FPI’s website, here.
A Continuing Professional Development (CPD) certificate will be sent to advisers who listen to all six seminars.
