Webinar Description: Preparing a donor for a positive charitable remainder trust journey necessitates early communication and disclosures regarding trust investment. To calibrate the donor’s expectations of future trust payments and performance, gift planning officers and their investment partners should discuss with the donor how CRT payments are calculated, the impact of market volatility and fees on payments, and how an individual’s trust might be invested. This session will explore basic principles of CRT investing every gift planning officer should know to communicate with donors before a gift is made.
