What is a Family Trust Company?

In general, a Family Trust Company is an entity which provides trust services similar to those that can be provided by an individual or financial institution (i.e., a bank or public trust company).  This includes serving as Trustees of trusts held for the benefit of the family members, as well as providing other fiduciary, investment advisory, wealth management, and administrative services to the family.
