An increase in income tax rate means you'll pay a higher percentage of your income to the government. This directly reduces your disposable income, the money you have left after taxes for spending or saving. This can make it harder to afford basic necessities, save for retirement, or invest in your future.
The video is an interview with Matt Brown, a partner at Brown and Streza, about the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA). The CTA is a new law that requires certain businesses to report information about their beneficial owners to the government. The goal of the CTA is to help combat money laundering and other financial crimes.
Brown discusses the background of the CTA, the reporting requirements, and the potential penalties for non-compliance. He also provides guidance on how businesses can comply with the law.
