Unlock the Nevada Advantage
Nevada is the gold standard for trust situs. But jurisdiction alone isn’t enough. The real advantage comes with expert structure and administration.
That’s where we come in.
With more than 30 years of experience in Nevada, we provide independent, disciplined trust administration with a highly personalized approach, focused on supporting, not replacing, your role as advisor. We ensure the full benefit of Nevada’s advantages for every client.
Built for Advisor Led Strategies
Nevada as a Strategic Advantage
We don’t just operate in Nevada; we help you leverage it. From asset protection to tax efficiency and long-term trust durability, we’ll turn Nevada’s legal framework into a practical planning advantage for your clients.
Built for Complex Portfolios
From alternative investments to multi-entity structures, we provide the custody and trust infrastructure needed to support sophisticated, non-standard portfolios—without forcing advisors into rigid platforms.
A True Extension of Your Team
We work alongside advisors, not around them. With direct access, responsive support, and seamless coordination with legal and tax professionals, we help you deliver more value to your clients without adding friction to your process.
30+ Years of Trust Expertise in Nevada
Since 1995, Nevada Trust Company® has operated at the center of one of the most favorable trust jurisdictions in the United States. Over three decades, we’ve developed a deep, working understanding of Nevada’s evolving legal framework and, more importantly, how to apply it in real-world planning scenarios.
This experience goes beyond administration. It means knowing how to design trusts that align with complex objectives, how to navigate nuanced regulatory considerations, and how to help advisors fully leverage the benefits Nevada offers. We’ve worked through changing market environments, legislative updates, and increasingly sophisticated wealth structures. That continuity provides perspective and confidence when designing and administering strategies intended to endure.
Comprehensive Trust & Investment Services
A well-designed trust can do far more than transfer assets—it can help protect wealth, preserve family intentions, and provide continuity for generations to come. Whether serving as trustee, co-trustee, or in a directed trust relationship, Nevada Trust Company® delivers the independent fiduciary oversight, administrative expertise, and collaborative approach that advisors and families rely on to carry out even the most sophisticated estate plans.
Self-Directed IRAs
Traditional retirement accounts often limit investors to publicly traded securities. A Self-Directed IRA opens the door to a broader range of investment opportunities, allowing retirement assets to participate in private markets while maintaining the tax advantages of an IRA. Nevada Trust Company® provides the independent custody and administrative support needed to help investors and their advisors confidently navigate these specialized investments.
As private market investing continues to grow, investors and advisors need a custodian with the experience and flexibility to support specialized assets. Nevada Trust Company® provides independent custody and administrative services for a broad range of private market opportunities, delivered with the same fiduciary care and personalized service that have defined our firm for more than 30 years.
How We Work With You
A Streamlined Process Built for Advisors Managing Complexity
Our approach is designed to reduce friction, handle sophisticated planning scenarios, and integrate seamlessly with your advisory relationships so you can move efficiently from strategy to execution.
01
Strategic Consultation
Advisors often come to us when structures involve concentrated positions, alternative assets, multi-entity ownership, or objectives that require more flexibility than traditional trust platforms allow. We begin with a focused discussion to understand objectives, existing framework, and planning opportunities and quickly assess where Nevada-based strategies create a meaningful advantage.
02
Framework & Strategy Design
We collaborate with you and your client’s legal and tax advisors to design trust and custody plans tailored to the situation—including scenarios that require flexibility beyond standard solutions. From concentrated positions to alternative assets and multi-entity structures, we help develop strategies that many trust companies are not equipped to support.
03
Streamlined Implementation
Execution is where many firms create friction, but we’re built to remove it. Our team streamlines onboarding, coordinates closely with all parties, and manages documentation and funding efficiently. Even in complex situations, we keep the process moving so accounts are opened, assets are transferred, and plans are operational without unnecessary delays.
04
Ongoing Administration & Support
We provide disciplined trust administration, custody services, and reporting—while remaining responsive to evolving client needs. Advisors stay at the center of the relationship, supported by a team that understands both the technical requirements and the importance of consistent, high-quality execution over time.
Transparent, competitive pricing aligned with the complexity and scope of each engagement.
Why choose
Nevada Trust Company®
No State Income Tax
Unlike most states, Nevada does not have state income tax. As a result, a Nevada-based trust is only subject to federal income tax and can benefit from tax savings that may not be offered in other states.
01
No Inheritance Tax
The State of Nevada does not levy an inheritance tax on beneficiaries of an estate after a decedent’s death. Funds not deducted during the probate process can be invested or utilized to pay federal estate taxes.
02
Shortest Statute of Limitations
The statute of limitations, also known as the “seasoning period”, is the period of time between when assets are transferred into a trust until the assets held within the trust are legally protected from creditors and lawsuits transfers. Nevada’s seasoning period of 2 years is one of the shortest in the U.S.
03
No Exception Creditors Protection
After the seasoning period of 2 years, assets held in Nevada-based trusts are protected from claims arising from exception creditors (e.g., divorcing spouse, child support, etc.). Nevada is one of the few states that provides this benefit.
04
365-Year Term
A trust created in Nevada, often known as a Dynasty Trust, can have a term lasting 365 years. With a Dynasty Trust, assets held are subject to an initial estate transfer tax only which allows subsequent generations to benefit from bypassing future transfer taxes.
05
Favorable Privacy Rules
The choice of whether to record a trust or not is left to the trust’s creator. Nevada offers favourable privacy laws that do not require recording or registration of trusts for public records purposes, a benefit popular with many trust creators to maintain privacy.
