Private family trust companies (PTCs) are an increasingly preferred fiduciary solution for family enterprise families.

 

PTCs allow families to efficiently manage complexity, maintain control, streamline succession planning, engage family members, manage risk and privacy concerns, and may involve both voting and non-voting family members — all in furtherance of family, financial, and planning goals.

Some states, including Wyoming, have authorized PTCs to serve as trustee to a family, which is broadly defined to include multiple generations and branches of an individual family. Willow Street is a Jackson, Wyoming-based trust and fiduciary services provider that specializes in advisory, governance, and operations for Wyoming PTCs. We are a sister company to Pathstone, an independent wealth management firm serving multigenerational families with complex needs. Our PTC Primer is an educational piece that reviews why families may choose to form a PTC, a common PTC structure, and the roles and responsibilities of key parties to the PTC. We are pleased to host a Family Enterprise USA webinar on December 6 focused on PTCs for family enterprise families, for which this piece will be useful framing.

The need for fact-based reporting of issues important to family offices and successful individuals and protecting a lifetime of savings has never been greater. Now more than ever, family offices and successful individuals are under fire. That’s why Policy and Taxation Group is passionately working to increase the awareness of issues important to family offices and successful individuals, while continuing to strengthen our presence on Capitol Hill.


Policy and Taxation Group is the Voice for Family Offices and Successful Individuals in Washington, DC focused exclusively on the critical tax and economic policies that impact them.

Since 1995, Policy and Taxation Group has been the leading advocacy group working to reduce and eliminate estate tax, gift tax, and generation skipping transfer tax while blocking increased income tax and capital gains taxes, the creation of a wealth tax, and other hostile tax policies that punish hardworking taxpayers and success.
