Trust information.

After taking out a Over 50s Life Insurance Plan you may want to place it in trust to ensure the people you want receive the benefit of your plan.

What is a Trust?

A trust is a way of giving away something of value for the benefits of others, but without giving them full access to and control over the policy.

When placing the asset in trust you specify who you want to be a beneficiary and who you want to look after or control the trust asset (the trustees).
