Minors as beneficiaries: What happens when a child inherits?

Free webinar: Minors as beneficiaries: What happens when a child inherits?

Leaving an inheritance to a child may seem straightforward, but what happens when a beneficiary is under the age of 18, and therefore too young to receive it directly?

In this webinar, Kings Court Trust’s technical manager, Nigel Merchant, explores minors as beneficiaries and key considerations when a child inherits from an estate, including:

• What to consider when leaving inheritance to a minor
• Whether a gift is vested or contingent, and the implications of each
• Parental receipt clauses
• Whether funds can be advanced before the beneficiary reaches the age of inheritance
• The responsibilities of Trustees

Whether you’re advising clients on preparing their Will or supporting families after a death, understanding what happens when a minor inherits can help you identify potential issues and better prepare your clients.
