Regardless of a particular client’s investment objectives, it is vital for professional advisors to understand potential legal, tax, and estate planning landmines before they occur. As “self- directed” retirement accounts (whether IRAs or qualified plans) continue to grow (in both size and importance to many Americans, particularly high-net worth individuals), a professional advisor can distinguish himself or herself from the crowd by understanding the unique issues that these accounts often create.  \n  \nAttendees can expect to learn about how to identify and plan for the two most significant legal concerns facing self-directed IRAs: prohibited transactions and currently taxable income (“unrelated business taxable income” - UBTI). Attendees will also learn how to manage IRS scrutiny risks, conduct an annual IRA checkup, and plan around unique liquidity and estate planning characteristics of self-directed IRAs with non-traditional assets. \n  \nNote from Admin, Heather: \nTo RSVP, please email[ admin@spokaneepc.org](http://admin@spokaneepc.org) -OR- follow this link http://www.spokaneepc.org/events/event/15074 to register.
