There’s a common saying that there’s nothing certain in this world except death and taxes, and so today, we’re taking it one step further and talking about a death tax. That’s right. You might’ve heard the term ‘death tax’ in the news lately amid discussion on the Federal budget. 

In today’s podcast, we’re going to explain the proposed changes, which mean discretionary trusts would face a minimum 30% tax on trust income.

Hosts: Zara Seidler and Elliot Lawry
Producer: Rosa Bowden
