Trust bank account for child
I am looking for some advice on setting up a bank account for my baby. I know there are heaps of children's bank accts around, but I am looking at setting up a trust account so that we can decide when they access the money. I just have a couple of questions
- how do you go about setting up this sort of account
- does my child need a TFN on the account (I was reading something that if you hold shares or managed funds in trust you should put the child's TFN on there so they don't pay CGT when you transfer ownership)
- how do you transfer ownership of the account or money over to the child?
This is probably a lot of questions, but hoping someone can explain this for me.
Thanks
