What happens if I appoint or remove beneficiaries from my family trust

In this edition of ‘It depends’, associate Sacha Robinson talks about appointing or removing beneficiaries of your family trust.

VIDEO TRANSCRIPT

Hi. Welcome to today’s edition of It Depends. Today we will be talking about appointing or removing beneficiaries of your family trust.

What happens if I appoint or remove beneficiaries of my family trust.

It depends.

There are many reasons why you may want to appoint or remove – certain beneficiaries of your trust, for example, it may be a requirement of a bank or financial institution.

For example, for payroll tax reasons or to exclude foreign persons for land tax and duty surcharge purposes.
