Trusts and Estates
Taxation matters relating to trusts and estates can be confusing, so let Ayres Bright Vickers manage the entire process. Not only can we prepare trusts and estates accounts, we offer a variety of tax and planning advice services to help support your personal and family needs.
It’s all about peace of mind, knowing that your family is protected.
Trusts
A trust is a way to manage money, investments, land or buildings on behalf of someone else. Chiefly, they’re aimed at protecting the assets within your family, perhaps for someone too young to manage them themselves, or an adult incapacitated by mental or physical health issues.
You may also use a trust as a way to pass on assets while you’re still alive, or when you die – to your grandchildren, perhaps
Given that the tax laws may have changed since you set up your trust, and that there are different types, it’s probably obvious that there are implications. What’s more, as we’ve implied, these tax issues may not be particularly “user friendly”.
Now may even be an appropriate time to wind up a trust so that your beneficiaries can receive funds or assets. How can you best minimise the tax cost?
