Private Equity and Opportunity Zone fund managers typically receive a special equity interest in the fund commonly referred to as a "carried" or "profits interest", as incentive compensation for managing the fund.

This session will explore estate planning opportunities for the Manager's carried interest comparing different approaches and highlighting income tax and gift tax technical issues including application of IRC Section 2701. In addition, we will discuss valuation of the Manager's carried interest for gift tax purposes including significant factors impacting the current value and potential future value of a successful fund.

A special passive activity loss limitation rule allows so-called real estate professionals (REP) to apply the material participation tests to their rental real estate, potentially moving these rentals out of the per se passive activity designation. As evidenced by a few court cases on this topic each year, this complex provision is often misinterpreted. The new regulations under section 163(j), a TCJA provision that uses a term from section 469(c)(7), added new regulations to Reg. 1.469-9 that clarify the REP definition. This presentation explains the REP rule, traps for the unwary, the significance of recent regulations, and planning and due diligence considerations.
