Clients who have large IRAs and are charitably inclined may benefit from making a qualified charitable distribution (QCD) or naming a charity as the beneficiary of their IRA. In this episode of the PFP Section podcast, JG Gassman, CPA/PFS, and Rick Peck, ChFC, discuss how to approach these opportunities with clients. They share:

  • What QCDs are, how they work, and the tax benefits
  • The clients who are best suited to use this strategy
  • The options for setting up endowments or scholarship funds with a QCD
  • Tips for making QCD and beneficiary designations seamless with charities
