1.3 How to Add a Trust

Step 1

Click on the Trusts tab at the top of the screen.

Step 2

The system will now display a list of Trusts currently entered into the database (if any).

Click on the Add Trust button to create a new entity profile.

Step 3

In this screen, users can enter all the information required to register a Trust in the system.

In the General Details section:

  • Enter a Name.
  • Optionally, enter a Registration Number.
  • Optionally, enter a Setup Date.
  • Enter a Country.
  • Select the Status of the Trust.
  • Select the Trust Type.

In the Client Relationship section:

  • Select a Relationship Status from the list provided. The options are:
    • Onboarding: for clients that users are planning to provide services to;
    • Not A Client: if no services are provided to this Trust (e.g. this is a director, shareholder, etc.).
  • Optionally, enter any Status Remarks which further describe the relationship with this client.
  • Select a Delivery Channel from the list provided. This describes how the client made contact.

Finally, in the Client References section, users may optionally enter an identification number that identifies this client in any other system Subject Persons use to store client information (e.g. a client relationship management system). This field helps users to correlate the same client across different systems.
