Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a trust and a will?
A will is a legal document that outlines how your assets are distributed after death, while a trust is a legal arrangement that can manage assets during your lifetime and after. Trusts offer greater flexibility, privacy, and can help minimise estate duty and taxes. Personal Trust in Rondebosch specialises in creating tailored Wills, Trusts and unique estate structures suited to your specific circumstances.
What are the benefits of estate planning?
Estate planning ensures smooth succession of your assets to heirs, provides protection for your family, minimises estate duty and taxes, and ensures sufficient liquidity to cover costs and liabilities on death. Personal Trust's estate planning service in Rondebosch helps you create a comprehensive plan that reflects your wishes and protects your family's financial future.
What is a unit trust fund?
A unit trust fund is a highly regulated, transparent, and cost-effective investment vehicle that allows fund managers to manage assets on behalf of investors.
