PRIVATE TRUST COMPANIES

Wyoming has become the leader in Private Trust Companies. Establishing a Wyoming PTC allows families greater control and flexibility while providing access to the state's low taxes, modern trust laws, and increased privacy and creditor protection.

MODERN TRUST LAWS

Wyoming has adopted modern trust laws that maximize the benefit of using trusts to manage generational wealth with statutes that allow for 1,000 year dynasty trusts as well as directed trusts. Wyoming statutes also facilitate trust migration and modifications using non-judicial settlements.

PRIVACY AND PROTECTION

Wyoming laws provide strong privacy and creditor protection. Wyoming trust details including grantors, beneficiaries and trust assets are not part of the public record. Wyoming is also one of the few states that allow domestic asset protection trusts.  

LOWEST TAX BURDEN

Wyoming has the lowest overall tax burden in the US, making it a top situs for managing generational wealth. Wyoming has no state income, capital gains, gift or estate tax, a benefit which may be extended to non-residents who place assets in a non-grantor trust.

FISCAL MANAGEMENT

Wyoming receives high marks for its fiscal management and substantial financial reserves. The Wyoming legislature is required by constitution to pass a balanced budget and has accumulated a $26 billion surplus sovereign fund.

DIGITAL ASSETS

Wyoming is the preeminent jurisdiction in which to manage digital assets. It is the only state with a comprehensive regulatory framework for digital assets, and was the first to clarify the legal status of digital assets within the UCC.
