Unique Benefits of a South Dakota Trust
As such, First PREMIER Bank can help you or your client access our favorable tax and trust laws! First PREMIER Bank can help our clients leverage favorable South Dakota tax and trust laws.
The impact is increased revenue for distribution to beneficiaries of irrevocable trusts with a South Dakota situs.
Most states require a trust to “terminate” at the end of a set period of time (effectively 80 to 100 years). This opens the trust to taxation, potential litigation and disagreements among beneficiaries, etc. Families with substantial wealth may want to see the trust “go on forever.” That can only happen in a state that has no rule against perpetuities - like South Dakota. Trust administration can be delegated to co-trustees and/or agents of the trustee.
Trustees may disclaim powers granted to a trustee under a trust instrument. A South Dakota trustee can “unbundle” services that the family would prefer to see performed by others, allowing tasks or services to be managed by co-trustees. Services could include investment management, custody of assets, record keeping, etc.
South Dakota Directed Trust Law permits protectors and trust advisors, and fiduciaries can be prevented from exercising certain powers that can be reserved to the grantor, a trust protector or a trust advisor.
