Estate planning and settlement at NinjaTrader

Name beneficiaries online, fund a trust online, and report a death at 1-800-496-1683

How your NinjaTrader investment accounts transfer at death depends on how each one is titled and whether a beneficiary is on file. Of those, 1 can name a trust as beneficiary or be retitled into a trust. Getting these details right keeps assets out of probate and ensures they reach the intended recipients.

Beneficiary designations at NinjaTrader can be managed online. Trust funding is also available, allowing families to retitle brokerage accounts into a trust.

There are two sides to estate planning at NinjaTrader: setting things up while you're alive, and the process survivors follow after a death.
