What is a Secure Trust?

A Secure Trust is a trust arrangement where cash is placed as a trust asset for the benefit of the beneficiaries. It is designed to act as an emergency fund, providing immediate access to funds upon the settlor’s Total Permanent Disability (TPD) or death, bypassing the lengthy probate process in Malaysia.
