Frequently Asked Questions
What is a discretionary family trust?

A discretionary family trust is a legal structure where a trustee holds assets for the benefit of family members. The trustee decides how income and assets are distributed, providing tax flexibility and asset protection.

Most family trusts can be established within 4-5 days, depending on the preparation of the trust deed and registration with the Australian Taxation Office.

The main tax benefit is income splitting. Trustees can distribute income among beneficiaries, often lowering the family’s overall tax liability. Trusts may also provide capital gains tax concessions.

Beneficiaries typically include family members such as a spouse, children, grandchildren, and sometimes extended family. The trust deed defines eligible beneficiaries.

Yes. Establishing a trust requires a legally valid trust deed and proper registration with the ATO. Engaging professionals ensures compliance, accuracy, and the right structure for your goals.
