Florida Executives on the Outlook For 2018

Executives from around the state share insights into how they see their industry moving in the coming year.

“The biggest thing we see is a lot of people on the sidelines as far as estate planning (awaiting Congress to act on possibly eliminating the estate tax),” Kaufman Rossin’s John Anzivino, estate and trust principal, said in an interview with Florida Trend.

“We remind them of the current opportunities, which are huge. We continue to have people moving to south Florida with lots of wealth. We used to get maybe 2% international estate planning things. Now it’s a third or more.

We’re focused more on business consulting, helping clients make their businesses more efficient. They outsource their accounting department to our firm. It’s all computerized. It’s all electronic. They understand what’s going on in their business much better.”
