An Individual Retirement Account (IRA) may contain a large portion of assets that you've saved with your children or other loved ones in mind. When leaving your IRA to a non-spousal beneficiary, you want them to receive the funds as you intended.

The problem is that the SECURE Act will force taxation of the IRA when it is passed down to your beneficiary no later than the 10th year after you pass away. The following video, Why You Should Name a Trust as the Beneficiary of Your IRA, looks at how the DTC IRA Trust Trilogy® may provide a solution.

The DTC IRA Trust Trilogy® video series is an entertaining and informative resource to use when explaining the potential benefits of the DTC IRA Trust Trilogy® to your clients. We will continue to release these videos to you over the next five Thursdays. Be sure to subscribe to our YouTube Channel to stay up to date on the latest Dunham insights.
