2026 Beginning of the Year Financial Planning Checklist
The 2026 Beginning of Year Checklist highlights a year shaped by legislative changes and refreshed planning considerations. New tax laws introduce updated deductions and savings programs, prompting a renewed focus on thoughtful and strategic decision‑making throughout the year. As short-term interest rates continue a trend of easing, it’s an opportune time to evaluate gifting strategies and refinancing opportunities. Estate planning remains a key consideration with the now-permanently higher federal exemption reducing urgency but still requiring coordinated long‑term planning. The checklist encourages thoughtful conversations about how you save, protect, and transfer wealth in alignment with your goals, helping you navigate 2026 with confidence and clarity.
