Trust Planning for International Families: The South Dakota Advantage
The United States continues to be the jurisdiction of choice for international families because of modern trust law planning tools available in top-tier jurisdictions such as South Dakota. At STEP Global Congress, David looks forward to discussing key planning considerations with attendees, including:
- Choosing the best U.S. trust jurisdiction, and understanding how South Dakota compares to other top-tier trust jurisdictions.
- Privacy and tax planning advantages that make the United States, and specifically South Dakota, the jurisdiction of choice for international families.
- Innovative trust solutions including Foreign Grantor Trusts and Domestic Asset Protection Trusts.
