FDIC’s National Telephone Conference on Deposit Insurance Coverage for Revocable & Irrevocable Trust Accounts Session Dates – October 23 & November 13, 2007

2 Deposit Insurance Coverage Seminar Today’s Speakers

3 Eligible Ownership Categories EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN GOVERNMENT SINGLEJOINT REVOCABLE TRUST IRREVOCABLE TRUST CERTAIN RETIREMENT CORPORATION PARTNERSHIP UNINCORPORATED ASSOCIATIONS

4 Separate coverage is provided for trust accounts Coverage is in addition to coverage provided for other accounts owned by a depositor in a different ownership capacity Two types of trust accounts – revocable trusts and irrevocable trusts Revocable trust (formal and informal) coverage is based on the owner/qualifying beneficiary relationship Irrevocable trust coverage is based on the beneficiaries’ ascertainable, non-contingent interests Introductory Points

5 Revocable Trust Types PODITFATF INFORMAL FORMAL Living Trust Family Trust POD (Payable-on-Death) accounts or accounts with similar terms such as “ITF” (In-Trust-For) or “ATF” (As-Trustee-For)

6 Account title at the bank must indicate the existence of a trust relationship For informal trusts, beneficiaries must be named in the bank’s account records For formal trusts, beneficiaries must be identified in the trust document Beneficiaries must be “qualifying” Revocable Trust Requirements

7 Revocable Trust Beneficiaries Spouse Children Grandchildren Parents Siblings * Includes adoptive and step relationships Ex-spouse In-laws Great-grandchildren Nieces, nephews, cousins Friends Grandparents Organizations Trusts Other relationships not listed Who qualifies* Who does not qualify

8 Revocable Trust Coverage Up to $100,000 per owner per qualifying beneficiary For non-qualifying beneficiaries, the funds corresponding to all such beneficiaries are treated as single-ownership account funds of the revocable trust account owner. Those funds would be added to any other single ownership account funds of the revocable trust account owner and insured up to $100,000.

9 Determining Revocable Trust Coverage Who are the owners? Who are the beneficiaries? Are the beneficiaries qualifying? What is the dollar amount or percentage interest for each beneficiary? Are the owners and beneficiaries living? Is the account titled properly?

10 Example # 1: One Owner & Two Beneficiaries John Smith wishes to establish a deposit account naming his son (Mark) and his daughter (Sue) as beneficiaries. He wants to know how much money he can deposit and be fully insured.

11 Owner? John How many beneficiaries? Two Qualifying beneficiaries? Yes, owner’s children Equal beneficiary interests? Yes Everyone living? Yes Titling and recordkeeping? Yes. Title: “John Smith POD.” Bank’s records show Mark and Sue as beneficiaries. Determining POD Insurance Coverage

12 $200,000 John’s Trust Relationship With Mark Up to $100,000 John Smith POD to Mark and Sue John’s Trust Relationship With Sue Up to $100,000

13 Example # 2: POD & Single Account Elizabeth Brown has a POD account for $100,000, naming her niece (Linda Jones) as beneficiary Elizabeth also has a checking account in her name alone with $10,000 at the same bank What’s her coverage?

14 Owner? Elizabeth Beneficiaries? One, Linda Jones Qualifying or non-qualifying? Niece is non-qualifying Equal interests? Not applicable Everyone alive? Yes Titling and Recordkeeping? Yes. “Elizabeth Brown POD.” Bank records show Linda as beneficiary. Example: POD & Single Account

15 Elizabeth Brown’s Deposit Accounts Account # 1Account # 2 Accounts are added together and the total of $110,000 is insured only up to $100,000 Elizabeth Brown POD to Linda Jones $100,000 Elizabeth Brown’s Single Account $10,000

16 Common Questions About POD Accounts Does the death of an owner or beneficiary of a POD account affect the amount of FDIC deposit insurance coverage? Most likely When an owner of a POD deposit dies, will the FDIC intervene and calculate deposit insurance? No, FDIC pays insurance only in the unlikely event of a bank failure Does naming a trust as the beneficiary on a POD deposit impact deposit insurance coverage? Yes, because a trust is a non-qualifying beneficiary

17 Formal Revocable Trusts (Living Trusts) Coverage: Up to $100,000 per owner per qualifying beneficiary’s interest in the trust assuming all qualifying beneficiaries have equal beneficiary interests Owner is commonly referred to as the trustor, grantor, settlor, donor, maker or creator Trustees, co-trustees and successor trustees are administrators of a trust and have no impact on deposit insurance coverage

18 Determining Living Trust Coverage Who are the owners? Who are the beneficiaries? Are the beneficiaries qualifying? What is the dollar amount or percentage interest for each beneficiary? Are the owners and beneficiaries living? Is the account titled properly?

19 Living Trust - One Owner With One Beneficiary A father has a living trust leaving all trust deposits to his daughter 1 Owner X $100,000 X 1 Qualifying = $100,000 Beneficiary Father (Grantor) Daughter (Beneficiary)

20 Living Trust - One Owner With Multiple Beneficiaries A mother has a living trust leaving all trust deposits equally to her two children 1 Owner X $100,000 X 2 Qualifying = $200,000 Beneficiaries Mother (Grantor) Daughter (Beneficiary) Son (Beneficiary)

21 Living Trust - Multiple Owners A husband and wife are joint owners (grantors) of a living trust. The trust states that upon the death of one spouse the funds will pass to the surviving spouse, and upon the death of the last owner the funds will go to their son. 2 Owners X $100,000 X 1 Beneficiary = $200,000 Father & Mother (Grantors) Son (Beneficiary )

22 Living Trust - Two Owners With Multiple Beneficiaries A father and mother have a living trust leaving all trust deposits equally to their two children 2 Owners X $100,000 X 2 Qualifying = $400,000 Beneficiaries Father & Mother (Grantors) Daughter (Beneficiary) Son (Beneficiary)

23 Living Trust and a POD Account With the Same Qualifying Beneficiaries Depositor with a POD account naming 3 qualifying beneficiaries Informal TrustFormal Trust Depositor with a living trust account identifying the same 3 qualifying beneficiaries + Accounts are added together Maximum insurance up to $300,000 $100,000 X each owner X each beneficiary

24 The trust identifies both qualifying and non-qualifying beneficiaries The beneficiaries receive unequal amounts or percentages A life-estate beneficiary is named in the trust A beneficiary or grantor is deceased The trust provides for different distributions to beneficiaries at different points in time The trust contains ambiguous terms Combination of some or all of the above issues Formal Revocable Trust Account Coverage Calculation May Be Complicated If:

25 A father has a living trust naming his son and nephew as equal beneficiaries of all assets Father’s trust relationship with Son up to $100,000 Insured in Revocable Trust Account Category Insured in Single Account Category * Father’s trust relationship with Nephew up to $100,000 Maximum Coverage $200,000 * Assumes Father has no single ownership accounts Living Trust - Non-Qualifying Beneficiary

26 A wife has a living trust that states upon her death, her trust deposits will be distributed 60% to her daughter and 40% to her son Mother (Grantor) Daughter (60% Interest) Son (40% Interest) Maximum Coverage $100,000 /.60 = $166,667 Living Trust - Unequal Beneficiary Interests

27 Living Trust - Life Estate Interest A husband has a living trust that states upon his death, his wife has the right to receive income from the trust or use the trust assets during her lifetime and, when she dies, the remaining funds go to their daughter Father (Grantor) Wife (Life Estate Beneficiary) Daughter (Remainder Beneficiary) 1 Owner X $100,000 X 2 Qualifying Beneficiaries = $200,000

28 Living Trust - Life Estate Interest With Unequal Beneficiary Interests A wife has a living trust account with $400,000 at your bank. The trust states that upon her death, her husband has the right to receive income from the trust or use the trust assets during his lifetime and, when he dies, the remaining funds go to their three daughters in respective shares of 20%, 30% and 50%. Insurance Coverage?

29 Step 1:Determine the percentage interest of the life estate beneficiary. (Since there are four beneficiaries, the husband’s interest is 25%) Step 2:Determine the life estate beneficiary’s share of the deposits. Total deposits ($400,000) X 25% interest = $100,000 Step 3:Subtract the husband’s interest from the total ($400,000 less $100,000 = $300,000) Step 4:Allocate the remaining $300,000 based on the percentage interests of the children Child 1 – ($300,000 X 20%)= $ 60,000 Child 2 – ($300,000 X 30%)= $ 90,000 Child 3 – ($300,000 X 50%)= $150,000 Coverage - Life Estate Interest with Unequal Beneficiary Interests

30 Step 5:Determine the amount of insured deposits Beneficiary Beneficiary % Interest Beneficiary Interest Insured Uninsured Husband 25% $100,000 $ 0 Daughter 1 20% of 75% = 15.0% $ 60,000 $ 0 Daughter 2 30% of 75% = 22.5% $ 90,000 $ 0 Daughter 3 50% of 75% = 37.5% $150,000$100,000$50,000 Total 100%$400,000 $350,000$50,000 Coverage - Life Estate Interest With Unequal Beneficiary Interests

31 Maximum Deposit Amount Eligible for Full Insurance Coverage - Formula Maximum coverage per beneficiary $ 100,000 Divided by Largest beneficiary interest. 375 Maximum deposit amount eligible for full coverage $266, ÷ =

32 Beneficiary Beneficiary % Interest Account Balance Trust Allocation Uninsured Husband 25% $ 266,666$ 66,666$ 0 Daughter 1 20% of 75% = 15.0% $ 266,666$ 40,000$ 0 Daughter 2 30% of 75% = 22.5% $ 266,666$ 60,000 $ 0 Daughter 3 50% of 75% = 37.5% $ 266,666$100,000$ 0 Total 100% $266,666$ 0 Maximum Deposit Amount Eligible for Full Insurance Coverage - Allocation

33 A father has a living trust leaving all funds to his son. If the son predeceases the father, all funds are distributed equally to the son’s five children. Father (Grantor) Son (Primary Beneficiary) Grandchild (Alternative Beneficiary) Grandchild (Alternative Beneficiary) Grandchild (Alternative Beneficiary) Grandchild (Alternative Beneficiary) Grandchild (Alternative Beneficiary) Coverage: Up to $100,000 (if son is living) 1 Owner X $100,000 X 1 Beneficiary = $100,000 Coverage: Up to $500,000 (if son predeceases father) 1 Owner X $100,000 X 5 Beneficiaries = $500,000 Living Trust - Beneficiary Dies

34 A father has a living trust leaving all funds equally to his five children only if they all graduate from college Father (Grantor) Child 1 (Beneficiary) Coverage: Up to $500,000 (while owner is living) 1 Owner X $100,000 X 5 Beneficiaries = $500,000 Insured as a Revocable Living Trust Child 2 (Beneficiary) Child 3 (Beneficiary) Child 4 (Beneficiary) Child 5 (Beneficiary) Upon Grantor’s Death Account Insured as an Irrevocable Trust Coverage: Up to $100,000 - After Six Month Grace Period Living Trust – Owner Dies

35 Irrevocable Trust Accounts Irrevocable trust may be created through: – Death of grantor of revocable living trust – Execution of irrevocable trust agreement – Statute or court order Irrevocable means that the owner (person who created trust) does not possess power to terminate or revoke the trust

36 Irrevocable Trust Coverage $100,000 per beneficiary (regardless of relationship between grantors and beneficiaries) However, no per beneficiary coverage if: – Grantor retains interest (if so, funds are insured to grantor in the single account category) – Interests of beneficiaries are contingent or not ascertainable (if so, all such interests are added together and insured up to $100,000)

37 The trust agreement does not name the beneficiaries or provide any means of identifying the beneficiaries The trust agreement provides that a beneficiary will receive no funds unless certain conditions are satisfied The trust agreement provides that a particular beneficiary may invade principal (for example, in the case of medical needs), with the result that the funds available for the other beneficiaries may be reduced or eliminated The trust agreement provides that the trustee may exercise discretion in allocating funds among the beneficiaries, with the result that the future distributions to each beneficiary are impossible to predict Contingencies

38 Irrevocable Trust Coverage Don’t try to analyze trust agreement Give conservative advice: – If grantor is living, funds may be added to the grantor’s single accounts – If grantor is deceased, coverage may be limited to $100,000 for the entire trust – For more information, consult with the lawyer or financial advisor who drafted the trust

39 Summary Separate coverage is provided for trust accounts Coverage is in addition to coverage provided for other accounts owned by a depositor in a different ownership capacity Two types of trust accounts – revocable trusts and irrevocable trusts Revocable trust (formal and informal) coverage is based on the owner/qualifying beneficiary relationship Irrevocable trust coverage is based on the beneficiaries’ ascertainable, non-contingent interests
