What Is a Trust?

A trust is a separate legal entity that you create to hold and invest money into for someone’s benefit. The person who benefits from the trust is known as the beneficiary, while the person administering the trust is known as the trustee. The funds that you put into the trust can’t be used by the beneficiary or the trustee until the trust has been administered. With most trusts, the trustee is expected to wisely invest the funds in bonds, certificates of deposit (CDs), or other low-risk investments so that the recipient gets the maximum return. Trusts can also be used to leave gifts for a charity or nonprofit organization you support.

Are There Different Types of Trusts?

There are a number of different trusts that you can choose to take advantage of if you want to ensure your estate is fairly distributed among your heirs:

Asset Protection Trust
Irrevocable Trust
Revocable Living Trust
Family Trust
Charitable Trust
Special Needs Trust
Pet Trust
