DYNASTY TRUST

Long-term trusts made to pass wealth from one generation to another without paying transfer taxes including estate and gift taxes. The trust can survive for 21 years following the death of the last beneficiary who was alive when the trust was put up, which can last for over one century. Usually, the trust’s beneficiaries are the grantor’s children, and after the death of the last child, the holder’s great-grandchildren. The trustee controls its operation, which is assigned by the grantor. An irrevocable trust, once if is financed, the grantor won’t have any control over the assets or be allowed to amend its terms.
