As part of the Agenda, Managing Partner of Cantor & Webb P.A., a Miami, Florida law firm specialising in tax, estate planning and property matters for high net worth international clients, will address the audience on the proposed Stop Tax Haven Abuse Act (STHAA) introduced by US Senators Carl Levin, Norm Coleman and Barack Obama.
“The seminar is designed to update and educate financial services professionals on the growing number of developments taking place in the industry and the subsequent increase in opportunities available to their high net worth clients,” says seminar chairperson and Higgs & Johnson partner, Heather L. Thompson. “As an offshore centre, private clientele and wealth management are at the heart of what we do. That’s why in addition to Steve’s global view of the impact of US legislation on our business, we will also explore The Bahamas’ own developments and initiatives for wealth protection vehicles, immigration, estate planning, tax information and real estate developments.
Other speakers will include Minister of State for Immigration Sen. Hon. Elma Campbell with a keynote update on immigration for professional financial service practitioners; Higgs & Johnson partners and associates will round out the programme.
