Professional Trustee

Realizing your personal and financial objectives and ensuring the well-being of your family requires a careful and thorough preparation. That's where a living trust and professional trustee can help.

With Lake City Bank's team of trust and investment professionals serving as trustee, you can exercise as much or as little control over the management of your assets as you choose.

Because your trustee will hold your assets for the benefit of your family and yourself, this selection merits special consideration. Some people choose a close friend, relative, or personal representative as trustee. However, few individuals fully understand the complicated duties involved in the administration of trusts. A professional trustee may be responsible for the following:

  • Overseeing a complex investment portfolio;
  • Collecting rents;
  • Distributing income and principal according to the plan outlined in the trust;
  • Understanding tax aspects of investments and distributions, and filing necessary tax forms;
  • Maintaining detailed financial records regarding trust assets;
  • Handling daily financial matters for beneficiaries;
  • Paying the grantor's bills and expenses.

Utilizing a professional trustee may actually cost less than an individual trustee. Often, this is due to the numerous savings and economies of scale resulting from a professional trustee's extensive knowledge, experience, and resources.

Gain peace of mind by naming Lake City Bank's Trust & Investment Management Department as your professional trustee.
