LEGACY PROGRAM: PLANNED GIFTS

Bequests

A gift made through a will or trust. A bequest refers to a provision in a person's will or testamentary document where they specify how they want their property, assets, or possessions to be distributed after their death. It is a legal arrangement by which individuals can ensure that their wishes regarding their estate are carried out according to their instructions.

IRA Rollover

An IRA rollover allows those who are 70 1/2 and older to reduce their taxable income by making a gift directly from their IRA. An Individual Retirement Account (IRA) rollover refers to the process of transferring funds from one retirement account to another without incurring tax penalties. It allows individuals to move their retirement savings from one IRA to another or from a qualified retirement plan.

Beneficiary Designation

You can designate TCA as a beneficiary of your retirement, investment, bank account, or life insurance policy. A beneficiary designation is a legal arrangement that allows individuals to specify who will receive certain assets or benefits upon their death. It is commonly used in various financial and legal accounts, such as life insurance policies, retirement accounts, pension plans, and payable-on-death or transfer-on-death accounts.
