Can your trust benefit from better interest rates?
Written by Lisa Simpson, Trustee Accounts Specialist
Considering current interest rates, I've been considering how I might help trustees with their trusts.
As a trustee, you have a legal obligation to look out for the best interests of the trust beneficiary - and there could be an opportunity for you to get better rates than you're currently on if you have a large sum.
By spreading the trust money, you can benefit from higher interest rates plus full FSCS coverage for each account (which caps at £85,000 - meaning some of your trust might not currently be protected).
Alternatively, if you do not wish to retain the money in cash I'm happy to arrange a no-obligation trust investment meeting for you with a highly qualified Independent Financial Adviser.
Either way, get in touch with me and we can discuss your individual circumstances further.
