Choosing Your Trustee

A trustee oversees the assets you place in a trust and administers the trust for the beneficiaries. Your trustee will:
  • Make trust payments to you
  • Invest the assets prudently
  • Complete the necessary tax returns
  • Notify you how much of your payments are taxable.
Light BulbQuick Tip
The most important qualities of a trustee are integrity and judgment.

You may decide to serve as your own trustee or name a professional advisor as your trustee. You can also choose a professional trustee, such as a bank or trust company. Many people name a professional as a co-trustee along with a family member. You will want to decide which traits are important to you.
