  • Summary

  • Welcome to the Santam Insure Your Future Money Bootcamp with Maya Fisher-French and Mapalo Makhu. This series is designed to guide you through essential financial topics, helping you make informed decisions for a secure future.

    In our previous episodes we have spoken about building wealth, but what about succession and building intergenerational wealth? How do you protect your family but also transfer wealth to future generations?

    We are joined by Moremadi Mabule, a fiduciary expert, to explore the complexities of wills, estate planning, and the often-overlooked aspect of tax implications upon death.

    Estate planning is not just for the wealthy; it’s about ensuring that your accumulated wealth is passed on to future generations.

    In writing up a will and planning your estate you also need to look at issues such as estate duty, and the impact of executor fees, which can be as much as 4% of your entire estate. Moremadi explains how to navigate these costs and the strategies you can employ to minimise them, such as negotiating executor fees and planning for tax implications.

    The episode also covers the importance of keeping your retirement fund nomination forms up to date, as well as understanding how retirement benefits are treated differently from other assets in your estate. We explore the concept of testamentary trusts and beneficiary funds, which can protect your children’s inheritance and ensure it is used as intended. Moreover, we touch on the sensitive topic of selecting a guardian for your children and how to structure your will to safeguard their future financially. The discussion extends to the importance of having a living will and the role it plays in making your wishes known should you become incapacitated. Join us for this insightful episode as we uncover the steps you can take to secure your legacy and ensure your wealth benefits those you care about most.
