活动简介
您是否认为信托基金只适用于皇室或富豪和上层名流？ 实际上，许多中等收入人士可以从信托财 富管理计划中获益。 例如，如果使用和设置正确，信托可以提供资产保护和税收优惠。 此外，众 所周知，遗嘱认证程序可能需要几个月才能解决遗产，而且是一个昂贵的过程。 由于信托通常避 免遗嘱认证，受益人可以更快地获取资产。
Are you thinking trust funds are only for royalty or the rich and famous? Actually many middle-income people can benefit from including trusts in their wealth management plans. For example, trusts can provide asset protection and tax benefits if used and set up properly. In addition, it is known that the probate process can take several months to settle an estate and is a costly process. Since trusts usually avoid probate, beneficiaries can gain access to assets more quickly.
