The One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBA) introduced sweeping changes with meaningful implications when it comes to planning for our clients. And with its dense legislative language, it can be difficult for financial planners and counselors alike to know what's worth de-coding. In this session, we’ll cut through the noise and focus on the provisions that are most likely to impact clients today, and in the years ahead. Attendees will gain a clear understanding of key planning opportunities, potential pitfalls, and how to thoughtfully communicate these changes to clients in a way that builds trust and confidence.
