CRTs are super versatile for planned giving, but they come in all kinds of setups, like NICRUTs or NIMCRUTs, which pay out the lesser of net income or a set amount. If there’s income, it gets distributed—even if it’s below the 5% minimum for CRUTs. Bottom line: these trusts need expert legal and financial advice to get them right.
