Bank of America Private Bank
At Bank of America we talk with families about their financial goals and often times as a part of that conversation we introduce the concept of trusts.
There’s a misconception about trusts in that they’re only used for the ultra-wealthy and for tax optimization but in fact they can be used for a wide range of purposes, for all different families and all different asset levels.

· Tax optimization
· Minimize administration
· Avoid probate
Most people are familiar with the traditional uses of trusts which are tax optimization, minimizing administrative hassles, and avoiding probate which can be time consuming, costly, and very public for your family.
Trusts can be used to plan for incapacity.

Design a roadmap
Situations where you’re unable to make financial decisions for yourself, you can design a roadmap for your trustee to step in and care for you in the way that you’d like to be cared for. And also to care for your family in the way that you’ve cared for them when you were able to make decisions on your own.

Choosing your Trustee
One of the most difficult decisions families have to make is who to name as trustee of their trust. Bank of America has been serving as corporate trustee for generations and we have deep experience in working with families. We can serve as an objective third party and take the administrative work off the plates of your family.
The simplest way to think about trusts is that they’re a way to transfer your wealth to those that are important to you and to causes that you’ve supported during your lifetime.
We look forward to working with you and your family.
