Trustee service

Our trustee service can help you and your family prepare financially for the future.

What is a Trust?

Trusts are legal arrangements where a trustee, such as Enable Trustee Service, is appointed to look after assets on behalf of a beneficiary, such as your child, grandchild or sibling.

A trust can be set up both during your lifetime and after your passing, for example, via a will.

What assets can be held in a trust?

There is no upper or lower limit to the value of the assets that can be help in a trust. It’s common for trusts to receive a gift(s) from an individual during their lifetime and/ or settlement from an individual’s estate. For example, this could be from the proceeds from a house sale, investments or bank accounts.
