\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n At a South Carolina Lowcountry event, Dividend Assets Capital<\/a> and Policy and Taxation Group kicked off their strategic partnership, with presentations by top Washington, D.C. advisors on key tax policy issues affecting entrepreneurs, family office clients, and family businesses.<\/p>\n The event, held at Oldfield Country Club in Okatie, was hosted by Dividend Assets Capital<\/a>, an employee-owned wealth management and investment firm based in Ridgeland, S.C.<\/p>\n At the meeting, John Marino, Director, Strategic Partnerships, Policy and Taxation Group, and Jim Haley, Managing Director, Private Client Group, Dividend Assets Capital, welcomed the Lowcountry attendees and announced the strategic partnership.<\/p>\n The topics discussed during the presentation were Congressional perspectives on critical tax issues, voter attitudes impacting legislation, the new Congressional Family Business Caucus<\/a>, and the challenges facing family offices, financially successful individuals<\/a>, and family businesses.<\/p>\n In addition, Pat Soldano, President, Policy and Taxation Group and Family Enterprise USA, presented recent results from the Family Enterprise USA 2023 Annual Family Business Survey.<\/p>\n Other key presenters at the event, moderated by Marino, were Washington D.C.-based policy experts Preston Rutledge, Strategic Consulting Advisor, Brownstein Hyatt Farber Schreck, and Brandon Roman, Partner, Public Policy, Tax & Financial Services Group, Squire Patton Boggs.<\/p>\n These tax policy experts made some concerning points about the direction of tax policy impacting the wealthy. They discussed the danger which still lurks and how Washington, D.C. lawmakers could raise taxes on this group and punish financial success. Despite conventional wisdom a Republican-controlled House of Representatives eliminates the possibility of tax hikes, the government affairs insiders noted several alarming factors suggesting otherwise.<\/p>\n \u201cPATG is excited about this new strategic partnership with Dividend Assets Capital, a venerable leader in the Hilton Head, S.C., and Savannah, Ga., region, which provides valuable public policy information to the Lowcountry\u2019s successful individuals<\/a>, family office clients, and family businesses,\u201d said Soldano. \u201cPATG provides a voice in Washington, D.C. with decision makers and situational awareness of the critical tax policy issues on the table that can adversely impact their clients,\u201d she said. \u201cTeaming with Dividend Assets Capital will help us advocate for policies that benefit successful family businesses, which is a vital sector of our economy and is the largest employer and greatest generator of jobs in the country,\u201d<\/p>\n In the recent Policy and Taxation Group and Family Enterprise USA survey it was found that family enterprises make up $7.7 trillion in annual GDP and represent 59% of the country\u2019s private workforce.<\/p>\n For the full details of the \u201c2023 Annual Family Business Survey\u201d can be found at www.policyandtaxationgroup.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider color=”#397389″ divider_weight=”2px” disabled_on=”off|off|off” _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_text disabled_on=”off|off|off” admin_label=”Become a member text” _builder_version=”4.21.0″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” link_option_url=”https:\/\/familyenterpriseusa.com\/donate-2\/” global_module=”5822″ global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n As we prepare for what promises to be a pivotal year for America, we’re asking you to consider becoming a member.<\/p>\n The need for fact-based reporting of issues important to multi generational businesses<\/a> and protecting a lifetime of savings<\/a> has never been greater.
