Asset Protection: Safeguarding Your Financial Future
Asset protection is a crucial process involving structuring your financial affairs strategically to reduce liability risk and shield your assets in bankruptcy or personal litigation. This practice is especially vital for professionals vulnerable to professional negligence claims, such as surgeons, lawyers, dentists, accountants, and property and business owners exposed to substantial business risks.
Adequate asset protection encompasses various measures, including:
- Inheritance Planning: Ensuring that individuals at risk of legal claims do not directly receive inheritances.
- It is minimising the Impact of Marital Claims: Preparing for potential claims that may arise from the dissolution of a marriage, minimising their financial impact.
- Business or Investment Contingency Planning: Developing strategies to address the possibility of business or investment failures.
Sound asset protection strategies often involve advanced planning techniques to place an individual’s assets out of reach from potential creditors. Trusts play a central role in these strategies. A trust establishes a legal relationship in which one party, the trustee, holds property for the benefit of another party, the beneficiary. Beliefs create a separation between legal ownership and beneficial interest in the assets. In a discretionary trust, heirs have no fixed legal entitlement to the assets unless the trustee decides, offering a level of protection.
It’s important to note that asset protection strategies must navigate the provisions of The Bankruptcy Act. Under this act, certain transactions may be declared void if they would otherwise fall under the control of the bankrupt trustee, making them available to creditors. Generally, property transfers conducted within 5 years before the commencement of bankruptcy may be voided. However, some payments are exempt, and specific asset transfers are protected. Transfers to related parties are typically safeguarded if they occurred more than 4 years before the bankruptcy, and the debtor was solvent then and remained solvent afterwards.
