Special Tax & Superannuation Topics 2023-24 - Family trust elections & interposed entity elections



A family discretionary trust is a very useful structure when used correctly. One key tool to make the most of a family discretionary trust is the family trust election (FTE) and the closely related interposed entity election (IEE). Attendees of this session will build a practical understanding of when FTE's and IEEs are required and when they are not, as well as being able to highlight potential long-term issues stemming from their use.

On successful completion of this topic, participants should be able to:
  • Demonstrate an understanding of the reasons why a trust may make an FTE
  • Demonstrate an understanding of the negative consequences of making an FTE
  • Demonstrate an understanding of the costs and benefits of making an IEE
  • Demonstrate an understanding of intergenerational issues that may arise from making FTEs
