Testamentary trusts place the control of assets left in a will to one person or organisation the trustee while the financial benefits of those assets flow to beneficiaries.
A testamentary power of appointment allows the holder of the power to modify the dispositive terms of a trust, in a broad or limited manner, at his or her death to provide flexibility for circumstances that were not known when the trust was originally created.
A will can be changed at any time before a person passes away. However, a testamentary trust is considered irrevocable because once it is created, following the death, it cannot be changed.
A living trust (sometimes called an inter vivos trust) is one created by the grantor during his or her lifetime, while a testamentary trust is a trust created by the grantors will. Only a funded living trust avoids probate court.
While testamentary trusts provide a structured framework for asset distribution, they offer deferred benefits as compared to family trusts. That is the trust will not be established until the event of death. In the meantime certain benefits relating to trusts may not apply.
