Tax Planning at a Time of Uncertainty Seminar - Matthew Leppert, CPA, MST
Program: Uncertainty in financial markets is partially fueled by continued uncertainty and instability in our tax laws which make long-term tax planning illusive. As businesses, investors, and advisors are still digesting elements of the 2010 Tax Relief Act rushed out at the end of last December, it is time for many of those provisions to expire at the end of 2011, so speculation turns to guessing which provisions will be part of another stop-gap extension law to close out 2011. In addition to Congress changing the tax law, new courts decisions, and the IRS rulings and regulations were issued throughout 2011 to create more change. Here in Ohio, we have tax law changes being done in the name of job creation and attracting businesses while simultaneously the Department of Taxation is desperately seeking to replace lost tax revenue by announcing planned “get tough” initiatives against businesses. This presentation is intended to help you keep pace with changes that affect the investing public, business owners, and individuals as you head into the closing weeks of 2011 and kick off the new year.
About the Speaker: Matthew R. Leppert, CPA, MST; Matt has provided tax advice to business owners, rental realty investors, and high net worth individuals for over 29 years. Prior to starting the 5 person firm of Leppert Company CPAs, LLC, he was a Senior Tax Manager of a Big Four CPA firm, started and headed the Columbus office Tax Department of a Pittsburgh based regional CPA firm, and was a partner of another Columbus CPA firm. Matt is a 1982 accounting graduate of OSU and earned a Masters degree in Taxation from Capital University’s Law and Graduate School in 1995. The firm currently serves businesses and their owners throughout Ohio ranging from 1 employee start-ups to businesses with 1,000 employees and sales of $70 million. Matt has previously been a speaker to FPA, OSCPA, Columbus Board of Realty, and other organizations.

Alternative Investments: How Do I Get These Things In My 60/40 Portfolio?
Travis Upton, CFA, FRM, CAIA, Executive Vice President, The Joseph Group, Inc.
About the Program: “Alternative Investments” is a popular buzzword in the investment world with most advisors feeling like they should use them and many clients are demanding them. However, the methodology for applying alternative investments in a portfolio context is all over the map. Many advisors with a traditional stock/bond portfolio allocation carve out a portion of the their stock allocation or a portion of their bond allocation in order to obtain the diversification alternatives provide. The purpose of this course is to provide more logic for creating an alternatives allocation in an investment portfolio. The course will differentiate between alternative asset classes and alternative strategies and how each impacts a portfolio differently. From there, the course will look at the client needs, alternative assets, and alternative strategies.

Topic 1: The Art of Hosting Strategic Conversations Around Money
Topic 2: Developing Successful Planner/Client Relationships
Speaker(s): Tuesday Ryan Hart
About the Program: Many planners rely solely on quantitative fact-finding as the core of their needs analysis, estate and financial planning. However consumer surveys, research and the CFP Practice Standards (100 and 200) speak to the importance of qualitative information and the importance of communication and listening skills in building client trust and commitment, to truly own the plan. Additionally many experienced practitioners have found that client input into the plan and planning process leads to greater execution and long term relationships.
This session will focus on the case for, and methods of, having conversations that will uncover client values and concerns and leads to greater trust and commitment to the process and to the relationship. We will explore the rationale and use of small group participatory process to share concerns, stories and collective wisdom. We will touch on applications in turbulent times, estate planning as well as applications for leaders. The session will be participatory in nature.
