问一道题:NO.PZ2018091705000042

问题如下:

The drawing up of a will is an area of estate planning that requires an individual to have a clear understanding of the tax and succession (or inheritance) laws of any jurisdiction of relevance to the testator. Although an individual may elect to draw up a will, the validity of the will could be subject to various challenges in the probate process. In addition, probate may create sizeable court fees as well as unwelcome publicity and a delay in the distribution of assets.

Describe how an individual can attempt to reduce or even avoid the impact of probate.

选项:

解释:

There is often a desire to avoid probate as court fees may be sizable, and the process can cause a delay in the transfer of assets to intended beneficiaries. A will can be challenged, and its contents are often a matter of public record, which may concern some wealthy families as it may cause embarrassment or divulge sensitive financial information. Moreover, many problems can arise in probate when multiple jurisdictions are involved. In some instances, probate can be avoided or its impact limited by holding assets in joint ownership (e.g., joint tenancy with right of survivorship), living trusts, retirement plans, or life insurance strategies. Through these structures, ownership transfers without the need for a will, and hence the probate process can be avoided.

那请问一下为什么书上答案有写retirement plan? 勘误吗 谢谢

嗨,从没放弃的小努力你好:


这个原版书上原文的内容,协会并没有相关方面的勘误,所以从官方的答案角度来讲,retirement plans是可以作为规避遗嘱认证程序的工具的。

retirement plans指的是一些退休规划的工具。跟据这门课的原版书,涉及到的retirement plans主要是员工持股计划、政府的养老金还有公司的pension plan。但是如何通过这些规避遗嘱认证程序,可能是因为比如说:员工持股计划,股权激励计划的合同中有个条款就是如果他去世了,他的儿子可以继承他的股权。这样就可以避免遗嘱认证程序了

我之前回答说retirement plans不能用来规避遗嘱认证程序有误,非常抱歉给同学学习带来困扰。
