A beneficiary share refers to the portion of an estate or trust that is allocated to a beneficiary, typically outlined in a will or trust document. It represents the entitlement of the beneficiary to receive assets, income, or profits from the estate or trust. The specific share can be determined by the terms of the governing document, and it may vary based on the nature of the assets and the intentions of the grantor or testator. In some cases, beneficiary shares can also refer to shares in a corporation or investment fund that are designated for specific individuals.
A beneficiary does not have to accept an inheritance. Their share or that item will go back to the estate to be distributed in another manor.
In a stirpes inheritance, the share that a deceased beneficiary would have received is passed on to their descendants. This means that if a beneficiary dies before the inheritance is distributed, their share goes to their children or next of kin, following the principle of representation. It is important to clearly outline this provision in a will or trust document to ensure that distribution is in accordance with the testator's wishes.
