在美國成立信託對跨境財富傳承來說，最大誘因在於非美國稅務居民將境外資金或股權移入美國信託，不僅家族資產可獲得信託保護、避免債權人與離婚配偶請求，更能完全擺脫美國贈與稅及遺產稅的困擾。境外公司成立後，不論是作為控股公司或交易公司，最重要的是該境外公司與個人（信託設立人）之銀行帳戶可順利開立，並能每年通過銀行的法令遵循測試，以利進行永續資金規劃。現特籌組開戶服務團隊，為銀行帳戶開立與後續帳戶維持提供相關專業支持服務。

Establishing a U.S. trust is one of the most attractive options for cross-border wealth succession. For non-U.S. tax residents, transferring offshore funds or equity into a U.S. trust not only protects family assets from creditors and divorce settlements but also eliminates exposure to U.S. gift and estate taxes. After setting up an offshore company—whether as a holding entity or an operating company—one of the most critical steps is successfully opening and maintaining bank accounts for both the offshore company and the individual (trust settlor). These accounts must also pass annual compliance reviews to ensure smooth and sustainable capital planning. To support this process, we have established a dedicated account services team to provide expert assistance in bank account setup and ongoing account maintenance, ensuring seamless financial operations.

境外公司資金進入美國，為了在美國境內持有資產及進行投資，信託下所投資之LLC或C-corp的銀行帳戶開立至關重要。目前美國本地商業銀行帳戶開立越趨困難，往往不接受外國設立人或外國大額資金開戶，因此客戶在美國本地銀行開立帳戶受挫屢見不鮮。專業團隊多年經驗總結，境外資金欲進入美國，美國本地投資銀行會較商業銀行來得更具便利性及投資優勢，因此，專業團隊特別與美國多家知名投資銀行（如Morgan Stanley、Raymond James、Fidelity及Charles Schwab）合作，協助客戶完成信託架構下之銀行帳戶開立，以利資金順利進入美國，並維持帳戶穩定存續。

銀行開戶流程：開戶人KYC（Know Your Customer）問卷填寫→協助挑選適合銀行→銀行初步審核→開戶文件簽署及提供補充資訊→帳戶開設完成→匯入資金激活帳戶

For offshore companies transferring funds into the U.S. to hold assets and make investments, opening bank accounts for LLCs or C-Corps under a trust structure is crucial. However, establishing a business bank account with U.S. commercial banks has become increasingly difficult, as many banks refuse to open accounts for foreign entities or accept large foreign fund transfers. As a result, many clients face repeated rejections when attempting to open accounts with local U.S. banks. Based on years of professional experience, we have found that U.S. investment banks offer greater flexibility and investment advantages compared to commercial banks for foreign funds entering the U.S. To facilitate this process, our team has partnered with several leading investment banks, including Morgan Stanley, Raymond James, Fidelity, and Charles Schwab, to assist clients in successfully opening bank accounts under trust structures. This ensures a smooth capital transfer into the U.S. and stable account maintenance.

Bank Account Opening Process:

1. KYC (Know Your Customer) Questionnaire

2. Bank Selection Assistance

3. Preliminary Bank Review

4. Account Opening Document Signing & Additional Information Submission

5. Account Approval & Setup

6. Fund Transfer & Account Activation

跨境財富傳承：美國信託成立之必要性

隨著家族開枝散葉，成員身分可能越來越多樣化，而家族資金以往多以個人或家族控股公司名義持有，存放於香港、新加坡等離岸地區。只要資產置於自然人名下，就無可避免的面臨生老病死處置不及的問題，公司資產也可能在自然人遭遇婚姻糾紛或是債務時，承受被追討的風險，因此，成立家族信託作為財富傳承、資產保全、稅務籌劃的工具，近年來已成為高資產個人財富規劃的首選。

但究竟是選擇設立者所在國的本地信託，亦或是採用香港、新加坡、英屬維京群島（BVI）、開曼（Cayman）或美國作為信託設立地則是另一難題。有鑒於美國無CRS通報之要求，加上政治開放、金融法律穩定、投資選擇多且安全性高等有利因素，在可見的未來當屬家族信託設立之最佳地點。

以下列出幾種最能協助華人資產傳承的信託架構及解決之道：

• 美國可撤銷信託（轉朝代信託）持有美國境外資產
• 美國不可撤銷朝代信託持有美國本地資產
• 美國離岸信託（四頭在外）可合規免申報美國稅負
• 離岸信託轉注為美國信託 

Cross-Border Wealth Succession: The Necessity of Establishing a U.S. Trust

As families expand across generations, their members often hold diverse citizenships and residencies. Traditionally, family wealth has been managed under individual ownership or family holding companies, with assets stored in offshore jurisdictions such as Hong Kong and Singapore. However, assets held in an individual’s name are inevitably exposed to risks related to incapacity, illness, and death. Additionally, company assets may be subject to creditor claims or division in marital disputes, posing significant financial risks.

In response, establishing a family trust has become the preferred strategy for wealth succession, asset protection, and tax planning among high-net-worth individuals.

However, choosing the appropriate trust jurisdiction remains a key challenge—whether to set up a trust in the settlor’s home country or in an offshore jurisdiction such as Hong Kong, Singapore, the British Virgin Islands (BVI), the Cayman Islands, or the United States.

The U.S. stands out as a preferred location for family trusts due to several advantages:

• No Common Reporting Standard (CRS) reporting requirements

• A stable political and legal system

• Robust financial and investment opportunities

• High security and flexibility for asset management

Key U.S. Trust Structures for Chinese Families:

• U.S. Revocable Trust (Dynasty Trust Conversion) Holding Foreign Assets

• U.S. Irrevocable Dynasty Trust Holding U.S. Domestic Assets

• U.S. Offshore Trust (Four Corners Trust) for Tax Compliance & Exemption

• Conversion of Offshore Trusts into U.S. Domestic Trusts
