nphe Cost is Small and the saving great! does administration by the Guardian Trust cost less V v than that of a private trustee?" asked a business man recently. There are many ways in which the Guardian Trust effects savings for an estate. For instance, our fees are defined by ' Law, are known in advance, and are considerably less than those allowed to a private trustee. Risk of loss through illness, absence abroad, or the interference of the private individual's own business with the affairs of the estate is entirely eliminated. Again, when a private trustee dies, as is inevitable, the estate is burdened with the expense of transfer to a new trustee who may be a stranger to the beneficiaries and unacquainted with the intricacies of the estate. The Guardian Trust is permanent and not subject to the contingencies that beset the individual, and is held accountable by law for all its acts. Due to abundant financial resources, the Guardian Trust is able to give a bond to the Stamp Duties Department for death duty at < no additional cost, whereas a —~r.-— jja!
