Testamentary Discretionary Trusts
Increasingly we find that testamentary discretionary trusts provide the solutions our clients are seeking.
Benefits for clients and their families and other beneficiaries include:
Taxation advantages: Testamentary discretionary trusts enable income splitting within beneficiaries’ families
Asset protection: Testamentary discretionary trusts can protect the inheritance you leave to your beneficiaries in the event of a breakdown in their marriage or relationship. It can also protect assets in the event of a business failure or personal bankruptcy experienced by a beneficiary.
Establishing the right trust to match your needs requires expert guidance.
