3. Join us for an Equitable Life Master Class webcast featuring Dr. Ryan Murphy, Morningstar

   You’re invited to our next Equitable^® Master Class webcast offering compelling topics and unique ideas from leading experts to help you manage and grow your business.
   
   Just asking clients what their goals are may not be enough. Clients may respond in ways that seem reasonable but might not represent the goals that are truly important to them.
   
   In the Behavioural world, this is known as ‘thinking blind spots’ and stems from behavioural biases we all have. The blind spots can prevent clients from expressing their true goals to you and lead to a plan that doesn’t accurately represent their preferences and motivations. 
   
   Join us for an informative discussion led by Dr. Ryan Murphy, head of Morningstar’s global Behavioural insights in how you can get clients past their thinking blind spots.

4. Why tax refunds aren't always good It’s important for advisors to help clients understand their finances. Many people think getting a tax refund is good, but that's not always true. Here are some reasons why.
   
   1. Overpaying Taxes
   A refund on a tax return means the client paid too much in taxes during the year. This is like giving the government an interest-free loan. Instead, clients could use that money each month for savings or investments.
   
   2. Missed Investment Chances
   When clients overpay taxes, they miss chances to invest that money. It could have been earning interest or growing in value instead of sitting with the government.
   
   3. Poor Financial Planning
   A big tax refund can show poor financial planning. It's better if clients break even, meaning they don't owe much and don't get a big return. This shows their tax withholdings are accurate.
   
   4. False Sense of Security
   A large tax refund can make clients feel falsely secure. They might spend it quickly instead of saving or investing it wisely.
   
   5. Financial Hardship
   Overpaying taxes can make it hard for clients to manage their money during the year. They might struggle with monthly expenses or saving for emergencies.
   
   Advisors should teach clients about the downsides of tax refunds. By adjusting their withholdings, clients can manage their money better and take advantage of investment opportunities. Aim for a balanced tax situation to improve financial health.
   
   Help clients make the most of their investment opportunities this tax season. For more information, contact your Director, Investment Sales.

6. 5 topics to discuss with large case clients Are you working with high-net-worth business owner clients? It’s important to ask the right questions to get them interested in learning how corporate-owned life insurance might benefit their situation.
   
   Here are a few suggestions from our large case team:
   1. Capital Dividend Account: Are you taking full advantage of your company’s Capital Dividend Account for your family?
   2. Cash flow and surplus: Do you have surplus cash or cash flow in your corporation? Why is it there? If it is for tax deferral, would you like to make some or all of that deferral permanent?
   3. Legacy: What do you want to happen to your business when you’re no longer there? How much of what you have built do you want to preserve for your family? How much will be preserved?
   4. Shareholder’s agreement: Do you have a shareholder’s agreement? How is it funded? Does it deal with triggering events like death, disability, and retirement?
   5. Worse-case scenarios: If you were not able to show up at your business for 3 months, and no one expected it, what would happen? What would creditors, customers, suppliers, and employees do?
   
   Visit our large case webpage and watch Ask our Experts to learn more about the importance of careful planning when it comes to corporate policy ownership.
