- 34 - bank account, sign checks, transfer property, sign the minutes and make management decisions concern- ing the contract of trust. If you are not related to the beneficiary(ies) you do not need ad- versarial trustees. THE GENERAL MANAGER Although it is typically the Trustees or Managing Trustee(s) that will be responsible for the management of the Trust, a General Manager may also be appointed for that purpose. The General Manager is merely an employee of the Pure Trust and is not an integral part of it. However, some individuals choose this position because they want to manage the Trust with privacy. When transferring title to real property and automo- biles, it is necessary in include the name(s) of the Trustee(s) in addition to the name of the Pure Trust, as a matter of public record. The General Manager’s name, however, would not appear on title. It would only be included within the trust minutes, which are totally private. THE BENEFICIARY/CAPITAL UNIT HOLDERS Beneficiaries/Capital Unit Holders have the right to the “beneficial interest” which is a right to the income, profits, and proceeds and use of the Pure Trust Organization. However, in order to provide maximum asset protection, the trust must be “Pure.” That means that “Beneficiaries/ Capital Unit Holders” CANNOT have any management control of the Pure Trust Organization. The Trustee assigns the “Exchanger” (Settlor) 100 capital units, which represent 100% of the beneficial interest of the Pure Trust, in exchange for the prop- erty he or she conveys into the trust. The Exchanger can then either keep all 100 Certificates or divide them in any manner among Beneficiaries of his or her choice. BANK ACCOUNTS Sovereignty Pure Trusts can also open a completely private bank account with no Federal ID Number or Social Security number at a major bank. This account will be like any other checking account, except that it is completely private. The cost for this is $125 per account.
