When it comes to tax strategies for high-net-worth individuals, it’s essential to focus on efficient wealth management and tax planning. Leveraging investment vehicles like trusts, charitable donations, and tax-deferred accounts can help mitigate tax liabilities. A solid approach often includes strategies like income splitting, maximizing allowable deductions, and taking advantage of capital gains exemptions.
