The Power of U.S. Trusts for International Families and the South Dakota Advantage
As global families seek greater control, privacy, and tax efficiency, the U.S. and particularly South Dakota, continues to be a jurisdiction of choice when selecting the best U.S. trust situs. South Dakota’s progressive trust laws provide:
- Foreign Grantor Trust and Asset Protection Solutions – Offering international families unique wealth structuring opportunities.
- Strong Privacy Trust Laws – Ensuring confidentiality through some of the nation’s best trust privacy provisions.
- No State Income Tax and Dynasty Trust Solutions Benefits – Offering international families unique wealth structuring opportunities.
David looks forward to engaging with attendees on these and other important trust planning topics. We encourage you to ask any questions you have and learn how Bridgeford offers domestic and international families a conflict-free, personalized, and non-institutionalized approach, embracing a new trust industry paradigm.
