Tax Planning Benefits & Options

There are several ways that investments in Flow-Through Limited Partnerships can be leveraged in tax planning. Investors should always consult with their tax professional to ensure that any strategy is appropriate for their unique situation.

Investing in flow-through shares effectively converts income into capital gains, allowing investors to take advantage of any capital loss carry-forwards.
Example: An investor buys $25,000 of Cordilleran Minerals Flow-Through L.P. and deducts 100% of the investment against personal income. Upon termination of the Flow-Through L.P. and the LP Liquidity Event, where the Investor directly receives their pro-rata share of the various Partnership Portfolio’s securities, the investor may choose to sell all of their individual Mineral Issuer shares. In this example, we are assuming that the investor also has $25,000 of unused capital losses, which he may now use to offset the capital gains incurred from the disposition of the Mineral Issuer Shares, further enhancing the after-tax returns.

Investors investing in Cordillera Minerals Flow-Through Share Limited Partnerships will receive their tax deductions in the year they invest and then receive their pro-rata shares of the various Mineral Issuers from the Partnership’s liquidity event in 12 months or less. The Investors may then choose to contribute their various Mineral Issuer Shares into their RSP for a 2nd tax deduction.

By liquidating your previous portfolio of Mineral Issuer Shares and re-investing in a new Cordillera Minerals Flow-Through Limited Partnership an Investor would receive an additional tax deduction through investment in a new flow-through limited partnership.
