      If you have long term wealth management goals, a trust may allow you to manage your wealth. You may not want to spend the majority of your time managing investments or you may be ill and unable to devote the energy to such a task. Setting up a trust is often an efficient way to manage finances.

   You may elect to have a person or an organization to manage your finances. If you prefer that a loved one or friend manages your finances, then you may appoint them as trustee and they will hold your financial assets in trust for your benefit. Of course, you may elect to have a financial professional manage your affairs such as a bank, trust company or other financial institution. However, having a professional manage your trust as trustee will cost you additional fees. Although paying additional fees may be preferable to leaving a family member who is a novice at finances handle your affairs. Only you may make the appropriate determination as to who is best suited to handle your finances through a trust.
