Some Frequently Asked Questions
Trust accounts can be audited by registered auditors. These professionals are specially trained to examine trust account records and ensure that they comply with all applicable laws and regulations.
Trust accounts should be audited at least once a year, but some may argue that it should be done more frequently depending on the level of trust involved. For example, if there is a high monetary value or if there is a large number of transactions taking place, then an audit may be needed every quarter.
A trust account is an account held in the name of a trustee for the benefit of another person or persons. The trustee holds legal title to the assets in the account and is responsible for managing them for the benefit of the beneficiary or beneficiaries. A general account, on the other hand, is an account held in your own name. You are legally entitled to all of the assets in the account and are responsible for managing them yourself.
