One of your biggest concerns as a parent is providing for your children if something should happen to you. The agents of AFI Insurance serve residents living in the Denver, CO area. They understand those concerns and can help you create a policy that will provide funds for your children’s welfare in the event you are taken from them. Trust funds are just one option that can be used to earmark fund for each of your children.
Creating a Trust for Minor Children
If you plan on designating a specific amount of money for each child to be placed into a trust, you will need to find a beneficiary who is willing to carry out your wishes once you have passed away. While you can designate each child as a beneficiary, the parent or guardian of the child will gain control of the funds upon your death and there will be no guarantee that the money will be used solely for their well-being.
The Right Beneficiary
Choosing the right beneficiary ensures the proper steps will be taken to put the money in a trust fund where it can be used as needed to care for your child. If this is what you are interested in doing, you can name your family’s attorney as your beneficiary allowing them to establish the trust funds in your children’s names.
