Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)



Overview

 

A Dynasty Trust is a trust that lasts for a long period of time, often multiple generations. Clients can achieve great economic benefits through the use of Dynasty Trusts. These benefits can include the accumulation of money inside the trust without the direct transfer of assets to any beneficiaries, excluding the assets from the clients’ taxable estate and potentially excluding the assets from the beneficiaries’ taxable estates.

Dynasty Trusts can also provide strong asset protection for future generations. Grantors have great flexibility with Dynasty Trusts in structuring long-term non-financial incentives to help beneficiaries learn more about handling and investing money before they have control of inherited assets, motivate beneficiaries to become involved with philanthropy, to encourage the beneficiaries to go to college or make a down payment on a home for a beneficiary.
