Trust Administration

A trust is a legal arrangement in which an individual (the grantor) gives fiduciary control of the property to a person or institution (the trustee) for the benefit of beneficiaries.

Trusts can provide protection of an individual’s assets during their lifetime or in the event of a disability and can be structured to ensure the support and security of a decedent’s family, usually with significant tax savings. The Trust Department administers the assets according to the instructions in the written trust document.

Estate Administration & Guardianship

Estate Administration, or probate, is the process by which the estate (property) of a deceased person is distributed to heirs at law.

The Trust Department, acting as executor or administrator, performs duties prescribed by the probate process – including preservation and management of assets, payment of expenses, and making distributions per will or statute – in a timely and professional manner.

Certain individuals are not legally able to handle their own affairs because of age or incapacity. Upon a petition of an interested person, courts may appoint an individual or financial institution as guardian or conservator to handle the financial affairs of a minor or an incapacitated individual. The Trust Department, as guardian of a person’s estate, performs many duties including managing and investing assets, paying expenses, and submitting periodic reports to the court for its review.

Investment Management

In light of the economic and market conditions over the past few years, many investors today realize the importance of professional investment management.

They are demanding investment advice that is free of conflicts of interest with full disclosure of fees and other charges. They want someone on their side, looking out for their best interests, helping them to develop an investment strategy geared to their unique goals and risk tolerance.

The Trust Department provides investment advisory and management services to meet the needs of individuals and families as well as charitable, not-for-profit organizations, foundations, and other entities.
