GUEST - Reo Emmet, senior legal adviser at Allan Gray
Statistics reveal that over three-quarters of South Africans don’t have a valid will in place. Sadly, this can lead to lengthy delays that often end in unfavourable outcomes for their loved ones after they pass away. This week we celebrate National Wills Week in South Africa and this annual initiative encourages every South African to ensure that they have a will in place – regardless of their net worth – so that their assets are disposed of in accordance with their wishes after their death.
In addition to having a valid will in place, investors are encouraged to use this week to review their financial portfolios and ensure that they are making use of financial products that complement their estate planning objectives.
Reo Emmett, senior legal adviser at Allan Gray, joins Kaya Biz to discuss the importance of considered estate planning and ensuring that our financial affairs are always in order, so that our loved ones are taken care of in the event of our death.
