The drawing

What a trust structure diagram is.

A trust structure diagram maps the roles and relationships in a trust arrangement: who contributes property, who administers it, which assets the trust holds and who may benefit. Different arrows can distinguish control, ownership and distributions.

It is a communication tool for an estate-planning discussion, not a substitute for the trust agreement, title records or professional advice. Match every label to the signed documents and the governing jurisdiction.

FAQ

Common questions

What is a trust structure diagram?

It is a visual map of the grantor, trustee, beneficiaries, trust assets and the legal or administrative relationships among them.

Who should appear in the diagram?

Usually include the grantor or settlor, current and successor trustees, beneficiaries, the trust itself and material trust-owned assets or entities.

Can I show a revocable and an irrevocable trust?

Yes. Label each trust by its actual type and show its distinct trustee, assets and beneficiaries so the arrangements are not conflated.

Does the diagram determine ownership or tax treatment?

No. The trust documents, title records, beneficiary designations and applicable law determine legal ownership and tax treatment.
