The Impact of Step-Up Basis in Estate Planning

Estate planning is different these days. With a historically high gift and estate tax exemption, most families are unlikely to face federal gift or estate tax liability. This makes it critical to understand the income tax impact of asset transfers, including the stepped-up basis rules.

Generally, for people inheriting appreciated assets (such as stock, real estate and business interests), the tax basis for calculating gain when the assets are sold is "stepped up" to their value on the deceased's date of death. This can significantly reduce or eliminate capital gains tax for heirs, while lifetime gifts don't get a stepped-up basis. Contact your attorney and tax advisor for help crafting a tax-efficient estate plan.

You never need to react during an unexpected call or message. A legitimate request can wait while you confirm it.

If someone contacts you unexpectedly and says they're from your Financial Institution.

• Do not share your online ID.
• Do not give out one-time codes.
• Do not share your password or use any "new password" they provide.

Then, contact your financial institution directly. They will verify the situation and help protect your accounts. If you're ever unsure, call your bank or credit card company directly.

You can help by taking these four essential steps:
1. Update software: Install updates promptly on all devices. Don’t click “Remind me later.” Updates patch vulnerabilities that attackers can exploit. Turn on automatic updates whenever possible.
2. Use strong passwords and a password manager: Create passwords that are at least 16 characters, random (mixed case letters, numbers, symbols), and unique for every account. Use a password manager to generate, fill, and remember them for you.
3. Turn on multifactor authentication (MFA) wherever possible: MFA adds an extra layer of security to your accounts. Use it everywhere it’s offered, and choose the most secure method available, such as a passkey or authenticator app.
4. Recognize and report phishing: Stay alert for suspicious messages. Always verify the sender before clicking links or opening attachments. If you spot a scam, use the platform’s “Report Phishing” tool.
