GRACEY LEGACY SERVICES, INC.

Gracey Legacy Services, Inc. is not a chartered bank or trust company, or depository institution.  It is not authorized to accept deposits or trust accounts and is not licensed or regulated by any state or federal banking authority.

The corporation is organized for the limited purpose of acting as a private trust company in order to provide fiduciary services to family members defined as relatives by blood, legal adoption, or marriage.  A family member may select the corporation to serve as his or her executor or trustee by naming Gracey Legacy Services, Inc. in the original last will and testament or trust document.

A private trust company is a family-owned enterprise that provides trust services similar to those provided by an individual or an institutional trustee. These services include fiduciary, investment advisory, wealth management, and administrative services. However, because of its flexible nature, the private trust company can customize its services to meet a family's changing needs and concerns and to assist a family in achieving financial and non-financial goals.

Owning a trust company gives the family the permanence of a corporate trustee without ceding control over trust assets. A big advantage of a private trust company is that it can pool small trusts in a common trust fund invested collectively for many family members and other beneficiaries without being constricted by the regulations imposed on mutual funds and hedge funds.
