Our financial advisors can provide you with trust administration. You may be wondering why you need a trust! A trust will help protect potentially vulnerable beneficiaries, or support a loved one such as a surviving partner or a disabled relative for the rest of their life. Our financial advisors can help you establish a trust to set aside funds for a valuable purpose like your children’s university educate you on how a trust works. The value of a trust is in minimizing the income tax liability on your beneficiaries by providing them a vehicle for splitting an income stream.

Charitable Trust 
 
You may be thinking of donating to a worthwhile cause. A financial advisor at iMoney Wealth Management can help you to establish a trust to support a specific charity. No matter whether you want to donate a lump sum or through regular donations over a number of years our financial planners can help you to establish a charitable trust as part of your Will or through private ancillary fund (PAF) donations. A Charitable trust gives money to an organization or organizations of your choice after your death whereas a private ancillary fund starts to allocate the income earned on the principle of your investment to charities or causes of your choice on an ongoing basis.
 
Private Ancillary Fund (PAF)

The aim of a Private Ancillary Fund is to foster philanthropy in Australia. The biggest advantage of a PAF is that it is exempt from income tax, supports your cause or legacy in perpetuity and also provide you with full tax deductibility when making donations. iMoney Wealth Management can help you manage every stage of your PAF.
