While we serve many families, we operate as though we are the team serving a single family: getting to know them intimately, appreciating both their articulated and unarticulated needs, helping them to appreciate all they do not know and often do not see, and working to deliver an exceptional experience uniquely tailored to them.

Destiny Family Office is built on a broad range of expertise in the management of investments and portfolios, asset protection, budgeting, educational funding, and philanthropy.

From the perspective of our clients, it’s more—so much more—than how we manage their financial needs and implement strategies; it’s how we stand beside them along their journey, helping them to better navigate the great complexity that encompasses their business, financial and personal worlds.

Our professionals align with diverse experts who create a cohesive plan. Together, we work as one – focusing entirely on our clients’ needs, wants and goals to achieve their mission and goals.

With more than 30 years of experience providing wealth management to entrepreneurial and innovative individuals, families and family firms, we understand the unique challenges they face — and how to address them.

Destiny Wealth Partners Launches Destiny Private Trust to Bring You World-Class Trust Services

We are excited to announce that Destiny Wealth Partners, RIA for Ruggie Wealth, Destiny Family Office and Nichols Wealth Partners, has expanded our trust solutions for clients whose financial, family or business needs require the services of a corporate trustee, with the launch of Destiny Private Trust, a Trust Representative Office of National Advisors Trust Company (NATC).

Destiny Private Trust reflects an evolution of the breadth and depth of comprehensive wealth management services our firms are already offering our clients and their families through every life stage and across generations.

With $10+ billion in assets under administration, NATC is the largest advisor-owned, independent trust company in the U.S. It is nationally-chartered and regulated by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, (a bureau of the U.S. Treasury Department), and is a member of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

Your Destiny Private Trust advisor and your estate planning attorney can create a solid, effective estate plan that helps you minimize estate transfer and gift taxes while providing a flexible trustee solution. Together, we help improve the overall transfer of wealth between generations, and help you remain confident about the future of your estate.

Your estate planning professional can work with you to recommend and establish the appropriate trust. He or she will choose Destiny Wealth Partners as your investment advisor and Destiny Private Trust as a corporate trustee, co-trustee or agent for trustee. Families can retain as much involvement and responsibility with the trust as desired.

Individuals sometimes appoint themselves, a family member, attorney, or family friend as trustee of their trusts. We know there’s no one-size-fits-all trustee solution that works for every situation. For many individuals, the administrative aspects of serving as trustee are time consuming, challenging and can carry risk. It may be difficult to ensure compliance with the trust document.

By appointing Destiny Private Trust to act as the agent, the trustee will still retain fiduciary responsibility, while the trust company provides asset custody, trust-style statements and trust officer support.

Destiny Private Trust works directly with the trustee to manage trust assets, help perform trust administration duties as outlined in the trust document, such as distributions, statement production, tax reporting and bill paying and achieve the stated financial objectives.

For more information, talk with your Ruggie Wealth Advisor.
