From its name, it's easy for one to assume that the Great Wealth Transfer will cause trillions of dollars to simply flow through to younger generations, solving financial problems and making people all over the country wealthy. However, the study points out that the event will likely only benefit children of parents who have money to give once they pass away. But, perhaps more importantly, the article explains that without proper planning on the part of both wealthy parents and their heirs, individuals may fail to realize the full benefit of an inheritance. The study emphasizes that the following challenges come into focus when there's no plan in place for one's wealth:
"Based on the insights we received from financial experts, lack of planning before one's passing can cause financial conflict among families because a person's wishes may not be met or their retirement may diminish before they're able to pass it on," says Sean Canonica, Senior Finance Writer at ComparisonAdviser and the author of the study. "In terms of the beneficiary, it's equally as important for them to seek assistance from a financial advisor to ensure they retain and, ideally, grow their windfall for years to come," continues Canonica.
The study concludes that, with proper planning and the assistance of a financial advisor, families can ensure that their wealth passes down to future generations without issue. "With the help of a financial advisor, anyone with money to pass down can ensure they're on the right track. And, with the Great Wealth Transfer getting underway and set to continue for the next couple of decades, it's never a bad time to prepare," says Canonica.
