A trust is a legal relationship whereby one individual (the settler) transfers his or her assets (the trust fund itself) to another individual or company (the trustee) who holds and manages these assets for the benefit of others (the beneficiaries) named by the settler. There can be a range of different benefits to having a trust including privacy, tax planning, asset protection, succession planning and asset consolidation and management, a range of benefits you may not quite fully understand! But that's where our Trusts section comes into play, if you've been contemplating the idea of a Trust, but you're unsure as to how it can benefit you, then this section should hold a few articles to aid you in your decision, plus there's a wide range of other articles to answer any other questions you might have to, making sure that you are 100% about Trusts, what they are for, and how they can benefit you.
