Different ownership structures produce different tax results for the same economic transaction, and it is important to know the differences.

The program also looked at the issues of liberating wealth from corporate structures and provided real insight into contemporary asset protection issues, including proposed changes to the Bankruptcy Law and the role of the professional advisor in asset protection.
