Topic: Practical Planning for Art Collectors and Their Advisors
Speaker: Ramsay H. Slugg
About the talk: Art is an asset of passion. Combined with its unique financial characteristics, this makes it the most difficult asset to incorporate into a comprehensive estate and financial plan. This presentation will explore both tax and non-tax considerations that collectors and their advisors should consider as they plan for the ultimate disposition of the collection, whether that be by sale, gift or donation, and whether during life or at death.
