FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I set up a family trust in Singapore?
Setting up a trust in Singapore involves selecting a trustee, defining beneficiaries, and establishing the trust deed. The process typically takes 2-3 months for standard trusts. We work with licensed trust companies and coordinate legal, tax, and compliance requirements. Minimum assets for meaningful trust structuring typically start at $1 million.
What are the tax benefits of philanthropy in Singapore?
Donations to approved Institutions of a Public Character (IPCs) qualify for 250% tax deduction. We help structure your giving to maximise these benefits while ensuring your philanthropic goals are met. For larger gifts, charitable trusts and donor-advised funds offer additional structuring advantages.
What's the difference between a will and a trust?
A will takes effect after death and goes through probate (which can take 6-12 months). A trust takes effect immediately, avoids probate, and provides ongoing management of assets. For families with significant assets, minor children, or cross-border holdings, trusts offer superior protection and flexibility.
Can you help with cross-border estate planning?
Yes. We specialise in multi-jurisdictional planning across Singapore, Hong Kong, Labuan, and Bermuda. This includes coordinating local wills, trust structures, insurance policies (including PPLI), and ensuring compliance with CRS, FATCA, and local regulations in each jurisdiction.
