This week, we will go IN FOCUS where we will cover more advanced wealth planning topics.

Today, I discuss “Impact Investing: How To Make A Difference With Your Wealth In 2025 & Beyond?”

By way of background, impact investing, or investments in companies, with the intention to generate a beneficial social or environmental impact alongside a financial return, has been all the rage over the past decade. However, over the past few years, many investors have raised questions about this strategy, the methodology used, and whether it best reflects their intentions. I will share how investors can effectively express their values through their portfolios without the conflict of interests present in many of the products available on the market today.

This week, we will go IN FOCUS where we cover more advanced wealth planning topics.

Today, we are joined by John S. Kiely, who is Counsel at the law firm McDermott Will & Emery LLP based in New York City. John will be discussing “The IRS Issues Final Regulations on Gifts and Bequests from Covered Expatriates.”

By way of background, Section 2801 of the Internal Revenue Code was enacted in 2008 and imposes a 40% tax on gifts and bequests from covered expatriates. Enforcement was stayed pending issuance of enabling regulations and the final regulations were issued on January 15, 2025, effective January 1. This tax is paid by the recipient and recipients are responsible for determining whether they have a tax filing and payment obligation. Individuals who receive gifts and bequests from covered expatriates, or distributions from foreign trusts that might have received funds from covered expatriates, need to know about these final regulations and the reporting obligations on a new form, Form 708.

2. This week’s quote is from Charlie Munger on what it takes to be successful.

3. Can you describe your approach to investing?

5. Warren Buffet said to put 90% of one’s assets in the S&P 500 and the rest in Treasuries. Should I liquidate all my investments and do that?

6. My uncle started his business by taking out credit card debt. He is now one of the wealthiest people in his community. Given the possibilities, would you ever be OK with someone taking out credit card debt to fuel growth in your business?
