A trust itself cannot be directly designated as payable on death (POD) because POD designations typically apply to bank accounts or financial assets, allowing them to transfer directly to a named beneficiary upon the account holder's death. However, assets held within a trust can be structured to transfer to beneficiaries upon the trust creator's death according to the trust's terms. To achieve a similar effect, one could establish a revocable trust and name beneficiaries to receive the trust assets after the grantor's death.

What happens to a trust that you are named in during bankruptcy?

If you are named as a beneficiary in a trust during bankruptcy, the trust may be considered an asset of the bankruptcy estate, depending on the type of trust and the bankruptcy laws in your jurisdiction. The bankruptcy trustee may assess the trust's value and determine if it can be used to pay off creditors. However, if the trust is irrevocable and the beneficiary's interest is contingent or not yet payable, it may not be accessible to creditors. It's essential to consult with a bankruptcy attorney to understand the specific implications for your situation.
