Fiduciary Solutions
Regardless of your net worth, it is important to have a basic estate plan in place. An estate plan makes sure your family and financial goals are met after you die. Estate planning is also an ongoing review of:
- The accruing or creation of your wealth
- The use of your assets during your lifetime
- The final division during your lifetime or at your death, to provide yourself and your family with the biggest possible benefit over the long term.
Your Will ensures your family is adequately provided for when you are no longer there to provide for them. Any person 16 years of age and sound mind may draw up a Will. To ensure your final wishes are carried out correctly, your last will must be clear and unambiguous. Without a Will, efforts will be made by the State to divide your estate fairly, but this will prove to be a time-consuming and expensive task. The execution of a Will requires certain formalities as prescribed by the Wills Act 7 of 1953. Therefore, consult your draftsman to make sure your Will is drawn up in accordance with the law.
In your will, you can have additional clauses customized to your specific circumstances and needs such as:
- Your burial or cremation wishes
- Nominating a substitute guardian for your minor children
- A trust creation clause and a clause arranging the powers of your trustees if a trust is required (usually used to protect minor beneficiaries)
- A clause authorizing the disposal of assets not suitable for retention in trust to the guardians of minor beneficiaries
