Inheritance financial

"Common | 11/30/2020 | Inheritance | Christine S. Abernethy"

Inheritance is the transfer of money, property or investments to someone after a person dies, like handing a family recipe or toolbox from one generation to the next. For investors it matters because inherited assets can change who controls shares, affect the size and composition of a portfolio, trigger taxes or fees, and create opportunities or pressures to sell or consolidate holdings, all of which can influence financial outcomes.
