Formal, Informal, Revocable, Irrevocable, Minor Custodial Accounts, Court Ordered Accounts - what does it all mean?

This two-hour webinar, which is Part III of a three-part series, will delve into the responsibilities of collecting appropriate documentation, providing ownership options, titling accounts correctly, and allowing proper access to Trust, Fiduciary and Minor accounts not only during lifetime but at the death of a signer as well. Part II of this three-part series encompasses Business Accounts and Part I addresses Personal and Consumer Accounts.

It is highly recommended that attendees have a copy of their financial institution's account agreement and signature card to use as a reference during the session.
