Beneficiary Designations

Posted by Anthony Senerchia Jr. | Aug 17, 2023 | 0 Comments

A beneficiary designation involves naming the person who will directly receive an asset in the event of the death of its owner. Assets that allow for beneficiary designations include insurance policies, retirement accounts such as 401(k) plans, annuities, and other financial accounts. Trusts also require beneficiary designations. You can also choose beneficiaries in your Last Will and Testament.  To note, beneficiaries are slightly different from heirs. Beneficiaries are chosen while heirs (though they can be chosen) are those who inherit the property of a person who dies intestate, or without a will. The designation process ensures the named beneficiary directly receives the asset, rather than it passing to the estate and going through probate, which can cost significant time and money.
