I am trying to set up a HD Trust.
Am using my company as trustee.
One thing I dont really understand,
1) What does the 'Principal' do? Who is it usually?
2)And If i want my trustee company to be one of the beneficiaries, do I have to state that or is it already included in there?
What about my mum, dad and family's name, do i have to write each of them in the beneficiaries - or are they already covered?
3) Do I have to nominate a special income unitholder at this stage? Is this normally a person with the highest income(me) or can it be a company (the trustee)?
4)If 2 appointors are nominated, when a decision has to be made, do both of them have to make the decision together, or just 1?
thanks
