A trust account is typically considered an asset. It holds funds or property that are managed for the benefit of a beneficiary, and the assets within the account belong to the beneficiary, not the trustee. However, from the trustee's perspective, it may also represent a liability, as they have a fiduciary duty to manage and disburse the assets according to the terms of the trust.
