Bridgeford Trust Company is proud to once again sponsor the International Estate Planning Institute, hosted by the New York State Bar Association (NYSBA) and STEP New York. Taking place March 27-28, 2025, at the Sheraton New York Times Square Hotel, this premier event brings together global trust and estate practitioners, bankers, and accountants to explore the latest developments in cross-border planning with a U.S. component.
David Warren, Co-Founder and Chairman of Bridgeford Trust Company, will be attending this year’s Institute and looks forward to connecting with fellow professionals navigating the complexities of international estate planning. We’re excited to be part of this important conversation and welcome the opportunity to meet during the conference. Be sure to visit Bridgeford’s exhibit table or reach out to arrange a time to talk!
Why U.S. Trusts Continue to Lead for International Families
The United States remains a preferred jurisdiction for international families, offering powerful modern trust law solutions in top-tier jurisdictions such as South Dakota.
- Explore the unique planning solutions available under South Dakota law, including Foreign Grantor Trusts and Domestic Asset Protection Trusts.
- Learn how South Dakota’s Directed Trust model, progressive privacy trust laws, and tax advantages make the U.S.—and specifically South Dakota—the jurisdiction of choice for international families.
We invite you to watch our webinar: The U.S. as the International Trust Jurisdiction of Choice for Privacy, Asset Protection, and Tax Planning. In it, our team examines worldwide factors for the historic movement of money into the U.S., objectively compares the leading top-tier U.S. trust jurisdictions, and discusses in greater detail the unique planning solutions mentioned above, providing valuable insights for advisors and international families to consider when selecting the best U.S. trust situs.
