What is the difference between fraudulent transfer and fraudulent conveyance?

The terms fraudulent transfer and fraudulent conveyance may sound similar, but there are key differences. Under Kansas asset protection law, a fraudulent transfer refers to the transfer of an asset or property without the full payment of consideration. This type of transfer is generally used to protect the asset owner from being sued for debts or other obligations. This type of transfer is prohibited and can result in civil or criminal litigation. On the other hand, a fraudulent conveyance is the unfair transfer of an asset or property to another person or entity for less than its full value. This type of transfer is generally used to defraud creditors and other parties of their legal rights to pursue and collect money owed. While fraudulent transfers are illegal in Kansas, fraudulent conveyance is an offense under the state’s Fraudulent Conveyance Act if it is shown that the transferor intended to defraud creditors or other parties. In both cases, the person or entity responsible for the transfer can be held liable for any losses incurred as a result of the transfer. It is important to note that fraudulent transfers and fraudulent conveyances can both be used in attempts to protect assets from creditors and other parties, and both are prohibited under Kansas asset protection law.
