Trust
IS
has a number of features that may not be found in trust accounting
systems offered by vendors who cater exclusively to conventional
trust operations. Trust Service Company, Inc. specializes in customized
trust industry applications and provides considerable integration
and functionality for trust related recordkeeping services such
as employee benefit trust (EBT) accounting, individual retirement
accounts (IRA), and court accounting for estates and quardianships.
Overall
Features:
- All
investment related transactions can be accessed with either
CUSIP Number or Ticker Symbol.
- Supports
a wide variety of cash sweep and sub-accounting methods including
separate principal and income sweep funds, threshold sweeps,
and special overdraft rules.
- Ability
to segregate reports by trustee tax ID number, department and
trust account number. Provides the capability of running multiple
banks and/or departments within the same numbering scheme.
- Trust
IS supports "life style" or strategy trading
portfolios so that new money can be invested according to a
pre-determined plan.
- History
is maintained on-line forever if you want it. This makes it
possible to reconstruct any prior period report. History can
be purged selectively by account.
- Trust
fee capability includes base, breakpoint, per transaction, per
asset type, minimum and income percentages.
- Automated
pricing and dividend mapping are included. TSC has a business
partnership with Interactive Data Corporation (IDC) which allows
our customers to receive volume discounts on security pricing.
- Creditor
and Beneficiary payments are fully automated including the ability
to pay creditors on a group check basis. This is very handy
for users that specialize in massive bill payments for clients
that may use the same facilities such as nursing homes or prescription
drug plans.
- Extensive
memo, tickler and "post it note" capability exists
for an individual account and all of its relationships.
- Trust
IS supports monetary fields with up to 13 numeric positions
and share values to 9 decimal places. This capacity is important
for users who need international currency conversion capabilities.
- There
are 999 transaction codes available for classifying transaction
types. Up to 40 free form description lines are available for
every transaction. Customer statements, investment reviews and
other reports allow for "table driven" mapping of
these codes by the user.
- Trust
IS supports 1099-B, 1099-D and 1099-I IRS forms and provides
worksheets for K-1 and 1041. Trust transactions allow for the
entry of a tax code number which can be mapped to many of the
popular tax preparation software packages.
Employee
Benefit Features:
- The
EBT customer statement format supports most schedules required
by the IRS for audited retirement plans and for preparation
of IRS form 5500.
- Participant
level recordkeeping services are not required for the administration
of EBT trusts by your department. You may provide trust services
for these plans and outsource the plan administration.
Individual
Retirement Accounts:
- IRA
accounting does not require separation of principal and income.
Special reports and customer statements are available for users
that administer self-directed IRA accounts.
- IRS
1099-R and 5498 reporting as well as electronic magnetic media
capability comes with the software.
- Maximum
age and minimum distribution accounting are also part of the
overall package.
Court
Accounting:
- Special
reports using the Uniform Fiduciary Accounting Principals are
available for trusts, estates and quardianships that require
formal accountings. Several other formats are available for
states that have not adopted the Uniform Standards.
- Schedules
for IRS form 706 and state inheritance tax returns are available.
