Trusts & Tax Planning

07 March 2017

An introduction to the relationship between Trusts and Tax.

Trusts are a legal arrangement whereby assets are placed into the care of an individual (Trustee) who manages them for the benefit of someone else (Beneficiary).

For the person placing the assets into the trust (Settlor), they know that those assets are being properly looked after until they come under the legal control of the Beneficiary.
