Common Asset Protection Strategies
Depending on your circumstances and asset protection aims, you could potentially benefit from the following:
Establishing a Trust
Transferring assets into a trust can be one of the most effective ways to protect them. Trusts generally remove assets from an estate, which can prevent creditors from making claims to them. Additionally, trusts can reduce estate tax burdens and even minimize capital gains taxes in certain instances.
Several types of trust exist, some expressly to preserve assets. Appropriately, these are called “asset protection trusts.” As long as the trust is structured correctly and meets necessary legal requirements, its assets can be relatively safe from risks.
Forming a Limited Liability Company (LLC)
An LLC is a business structure that offers owners limited liability protection. This means the company’s debts and liabilities are not typically the owners’ responsibility. If you have personal assets at risk due to your business, forming an LLC can provide an extra layer of security.
Entering a Family Limited Partnership (FLP)
An FLP is a business entity that can allow family members to pool assets. It also offers limited liability protection (like an LLC) and lets you seamlessly transfer an ownership interest in a business.
