Asset Protection Strategies
Asset Protection Brisbane
Did you know that the way your business is structured could affect the protection that your business and personal assets are afforded? Business structure is just one aspect of asset protection, and protecting your assets is an important but often overlooked component of risk management. Asset protection is the process of shielding private family assets and valuable business assets, that you may have spent years building, from possible future financial setbacks, family disagreements over finances and business failure. Asset protection strategies can also insulate your assets from creditors and in the case of lawsuits.
Most people don’t think about business asset protection strategies until it’s too late. By then it’s possible that they’ve already been hit with a lawsuit or some other legal action that affects their assets, all of which could have been avoided had they taken the proper precautions. Proper asset protection advice is about structuring your finances in a way that protects your hard-earned wealth.

Some Asset Protection Strategies
There are a number of ways to protect your assets from creditors, depending on the type of assets and your financial situation. Some common business asset protection strategies include:
- Holding your assets in a discretionary trust with you as the beneficiary as a way to insulate your assets
- Structuring your business in such a way so as to limit your personal liability and shield your personal assets.
- You may consider transferring assets to a spouse or a trusted family member.
- Make sure your business insurance coverage is adequate to protect your assets.
- Keep good records of all your assets and their value. This will help you prove their worth if you ever have to defend them in court.
- Talk to an expert about other ways to protect your assets.
Each state has its own laws regarding the protection of assets, so it’s important to consult with a professional before taking any action. An experienced asset protection specialist can help you choose the best strategy for your situation and ensure that your assets are properly protected.

My partner and I have had such a pleasant experience so far with Ray and his team. There are always smiling faces to meet you at the office door or someone on hand to offer advice via phone call. No job is too big or too small. Ray makes us feel confident in our decision making and always steers us in the right direction (if he can’t do it he will know someone who can). We look forward to future endeavours with Ray and his fabulous team.

We first met Ray and the Taggart team around ten years ago when our business bought us together via a mutual friend. This opportunity allowed us to work with the Taggart team for a couple of years.Our business has now bought us back to Ray and his team on our accord. Great to see some familiar faces in the office and to be working with the Taggart team again. Ray’s attention to detail and motivation to see the best outcome for both your business and personal life is something the Taggart team take very seriously. Professionalism, understanding and knowledge lead the way in the Taggart office.Cameron and Nicole Burke

Taggart & Partners have been an integral part of our growth journey and have guided us each step of the way. The structure they have set up for us has benefited us exponentially and allowed us to aim far bigger a lot more quickly that we would have with out them. They communicate at a level that we can interpret and understand unlike previous accounting firms we have worked with. They have a genuine interest in our business and seeing us succeed and therefore we have a lot of trust in the services that they provide us.

Ray and his team helped us create an extremely tax effective structure to reduce our tax obligations, maximise our returns and protect our company and private assets. We can now plan for retirement with confidence and certainty. I would highly recommend Taggart & Partners and only wish I’d changed accountants years ago! (The reserved parking sign with our names on it was also a nice touch!)

I was introduced to Ray Taggart when I abruptly learnt that “our existing accountant wasn’t an accountant!”Ray and his team immediately took us on board and over a short period of time ensured compliance when it was needed the most.To know that you have a support team in the background such as Taggart & Partners, a team who will ensure that all aspects of owning and operating a small business is kept compliant, is a breath of fresh air.Ray and his team are always on the other end of the phone (or email) and a response to queries is always received within twenty fours – much different to what we had become used to in the past.I cannot recommend Taggart & Partners enough, thankyou!

I met Ray with my Book keeper as we were interviewing accounting firms to take over our business restructure which had experienced some set backs. We were a tough crowd. Taggart’s was the 3rd firm we’d interviewed and 5 minutes in we both knew there wasn’t anyone we’d talked to at his level of professionalism and effort to understand exactly who his potential clients where and what they needed. We walked away both relieved and invigorated that with Ray and his team we’d be alright. . We just presented as a small business in need of help and we had the red carpet rolled out, we weren’t under sold or over sold. It was just right. Everything was focused and detailed toward our needs and solutions. I’m still blown away by the experience and I’m now trying to model my own business and practice after the experience we’ve had with Taggart and partners. Taggart’s runs as a team with everyone bringing their areas of talent to the table for the client. We had Sheree, Mitch, Sam and Danella all co-ordinating and giving and taking instructions without any confusion or pressure, they really knew how to communicate within the organisation to avoid any overlap or confusion, and with us, so we didn’t get swamped. We’re completing 2 years of returns and the structure has been enlivened and refocused on our plans and goals. I couldn’t be happier and my wife and business partner is also really happy. A long over due win for us. 5 plus star.

We’ve recently become clients of Taggart & Partners after knowing Ray & Suzi professionally/personally for 10+ years. The change over from my previous accountant handled with ease/care, and the first 12 months has been eye opening. There is clear concise communication, a pro-active mentality, and a whole of team office culture that makes you feel like you’re their most important client. Working with an Accountant/Business adviser shouldn’t be seen as just a business cost, it should be seen as an investment, and switching to Taggart & Partners has been one of the best business investment decisions I’ve made in the last decade.

Raymond Taggart has been a pleasure to work with. His knowledge of asset protection and effective taxation minimisation strategies is second to non.It’s been great to have an accountant that also specialises in SMSF and financial planning, as you are able to work out the company and personal strategies for cashflow, investments and wealth creation. His knowledge has meant our companies were set up properly from the start and their structure has helped us grow and save money on taxation. Great advice and good pricing. They go above and beyond for their clients and add personal touches. I highly recommend Raymond Taggart.

Ray is a wealth of knowledge. I had minimal understanding of taxation, asset protection and tax minimalisation and Ray explained everything to me in a way that made sense. I felt instantly at ease an comfortable. Time wasn’t an issue he just wanted me to understand everything. He has a solution to every scenario that is at your best interest and he is willing to go far and beyond to assist you to reaching your end goals. He is real and true to his word. I have found this vey rare to find but Ray does it naturally.If you are wanting someone who cares and understands accounting Ray is your man…. Couldn’t be happier

Before working with Ray and the team at Taggart and Partners I knew my structure wasn’t right, but I didn’t know where to start or what to do about it.From my very first meeting with Ray it was clear to me that he is not your typical accountant. He explained things in a clear manner that made perfect sense. He has provided tax effective advice and strategies and has make the transition from my previous accountant seamless. The best part is he is great to deal with. In fact, all his team are responsive, professional and supportive.Because of working with Ray, I have no doubt that I am in the best situation I can be. I recommend Ray and his team to any business owner who wants to work with a team who is committed to getting the very best for their clients. Thank-you Ray and the team at Taggart and Partners.
