As we traverse the complex financial landscape of advanced?tax?planning for ultra-high-net-worth clients, we are witnessing a seismic shift. This transition has been powered by?hundreds of Virtual Family Offices (VFOs) , led by Certified Public Accountants (CPAs), who are pooling their independent research as part of the Due Diligence Project?(DDP) to identify the very best strategies while reducing risk.?VFOs who are supported by the DDP?are reshaping the wealth management sphere?and?highlighting the limitations of traditional due diligence methods?when applied to sophisticated tax planning.?Let's unpack this evolutionary step in advanced planning.
The?Objective of The Due Diligence Project?: Reduce Risk, Save Time & Gain Confidence!
At the heart of a?DDP?lies a winning combination: saving clients time and instilling confidence in their financial decisions. As ultra-high-net-worth individuals grapple with an intricate web of financial obligations and opportunities,?VFOs plugged into the DDP?become their guiding light. By consolidating a roster of top-tier advisors onto one platform, a well-crafted VFO provides a comprehensive and structured overview of tax planning, estate planning, asset management,?handling?liquidity events, and more.
Servicing Fewer, Earning More: The Wealth Equation Reimagined
As a CPA navigating the?VFO / DDP?landscape, you find yourself at the threshold of an opportunity to?provide a lot more client value, earn more income, while working with less clientele.?It's about mastering a synergistic pricing model that aligns your compensation with the unparalleled value you deliver to your ultra-high-net-worth clients.?
Delivering Exceptional Return on Investment (ROI):?Net of Cost & Risk
In the high stakes game of wealth management and tax planning, one of the biggest differentiators is the ability to deliver return on investment (ROI).?Traditional investment strategies in the stock market, real estate, crypto, and privately held companies typically carry an expectation of return with few guarantees, but also have elements of risk and moving parts that are subject to market movements and outside factors.
Sophisticated tax planning strategies can deliver ROIs net of cost and risk between 30% and 2000+% (depending on the strategy, when analyzing total cost vs. benefits), as long as they are independently peer-reviewed by hundreds of tax-focused CPAs and Attorneys who have at least 10,000 (hopefully over 50,000) hours of experience with audits and tax court.
VFOs, who are part of the DDP, are delivering these ROIs to their most important clients, while also providing access to best-in-class cost mitigation resources that mitigate unnecessary business expenses like health insurance and shipping costs, just to name a few.
