Did You Know?
Life income beneficiaries can be the donor, family members or
others.
The trust principal is normally invested for a total return and grows
tax free. It can be invested in a variety of diversified portfolios,
including EFSC’s endowment.
An Annuity Trust makes a fixed annual payment and a Unitrust
makes a variable annual payment.
Unitrusts are revalued annually, and if the principal in the trust
appreciates payments will be correspondingly larger. But there’s a
risk. If the principal depreciates payments will be smaller.
