South Dakota was one of the first states to allow a trust to endure perpetually. While other states have followed suit, South Dakota’s modern trust and privacy laws, coupled with the advantages of no state income tax, capital gains, dividend/interest or tangible tax, distinguish it from other dynasty states. TFO Trust Company allows families to access all the benefits of South Dakota, including most of the unique and creative trust strategies for the wealthy, without the necessity of having the family reside in the state.
South Dakota’s flexible and modern trust laws make it a very attractive jurisdiction for trusts and sophisticated estate planning.
Tax laws are not the same in every state. South Dakota has no state income tax and offers many other advantageous tax law provisions.
Many states require a trust to have a specific termination date, while South Dakota allows trusts to continue in perpetuity.
