Financial institutions are required to complete transactions that have created revocable and irrevocable trusts. To protect your financial institution's interests when using these documents, it is imperative to understand the basic do's and don'ts. This presentation will provide financial institution personnel with best practices to use when dealing with these complex legal documents.

What You'll Learn

  • What are the differences between revocable and irrevocable trusts?

  • When can a successor trustee do business for the trust?
