Opportunities and Drawbacks of Directed Trusts

Gain a better understanding of directed trusts, how they are created, and what they are intended for.

Directed trusts are being used to add flexibility in administering a trust. In a directed trust, a trust protector, co-trustee, or other fiduciary may direct the trustee to perform certain actions to facilitate trust administration. As the laws surrounding directed trusts have evolved significantly, this topic will allow the practitioner to understand the uses of directed trusts and the advantages and pitfalls of such use.
