The main reason a person might choose to establish a trust fund is to create a legally binding agreement that sets out the terms in which assets are to be held, maintained, or distributed in the future. The settlor creates an arrangement that is carried out when they are no longer able to do so (whether it be through illness, incapacity or death). The trustee of a trust fund acts in the sole interest of the settlor. A trust is created for a beneficiary who receives assets and possibly an income from the trust. The fund can maintain almost any type of asset including money, shares, Government bonds, property and so on. A trustee which could be a person or a legal body, manages the fund in a manner specified by the settlor. This could include provision for living expenses and so on… What Else Does A Trust Do? If you put your assets into a trust then they no longer belong to you (provided certain conditions are met). When you die the assets you put into trust won\u2019t, under normal circumstances, be taken into account when your Inheritance Tax bill is worked out. Instead, the assets in trust is not counted as part of your estate for inheritance tax purposes. Trusts are also a way of controlling and protecting your assets for a beneficiary.
