Incentive Trusts


Do you want to make sure your beneficiaries do not misuse their inheritance? Well, your trust could be drafted in such a way to provide incentives to direct your loved one on the right path. When things go as you direct, money is earned. When they fail to meet your expectations, the money is held until they do. This can be for anything that you feel is important.

We all may know situations where children have encountered problems including drug, alcohol or gambling addiction. How can that be handled when you are no longer available to help them? The Incentive Trust can be there for them to get the necessary help. It can also serve to teach children to be fiscally responsible. If they "earn" their own money, the trust could match their earnings. The options are as limitless as the situations that exist.
