Choosing Your Trustee
A trustee oversees the assets you place in a trust and administers the trust for the beneficiaries. While you can serve as your own trustee, you may prefer to name a family member or close friend 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 or close friend. You will want to decide which traits are important to you.
