What Is A Family Protection Trust?

To understand the workings of Family Protection Trusts, it’s essential to first grasp the fundamentals of Trusts and how they work within Family Protection Trust planning.

In simple terms, a Trust is a legal arrangement whereby you transfer ownership of your assets to a third party, known as the “Trustee,” who holds them on behalf of the Trust’s members. The Trustee is responsible for managing the assets in line with your wishes, and those who receive disbursements from the Trust are referred to as “beneficiaries.”

By placing your assets in a Trust, they are no longer considered personal property, which means they are protected from potential legal challenges and creditors. Additionally, the assets may be subject to different Inheritance Tax (IHT) rules.

You can establish a Trust during your lifetime or specify one in your Will, which comes into effect upon your passing.

How Does A Family Protection Trust Work?

Are you considering setting up a Trust for the benefit of your family members? A Family Protection Trust (Asset Protection Trust) is a popular option for many individuals looking to protect assets and provide for their loved ones.

There are numerous reasons to set up a Family Protection Trust, including:

  • Setting funds aside for future generations.
  • Passing assets on to a child or grandchild, but not until they are older.
  • Protecting assets when entering into a marriage.
  • Ensuring that a spouse can benefit from family assets for the rest of their life before assets are passed on to children.
  • Passing assets on to family members tax-efficiently.
  • Protecting assets against claims from creditors when self-employed.

How Do You Set Up a Family Protection Trust?

Are you considering setting up a Family Protection Trust but not sure where to start? A Family Protection Trust can be established during your lifetime or through a provision in your Will that comes into effect upon your death.
