Regions offers 19 consumer accounts that interact with estate planning in distinct ways. Of those, 16 can name a trust as beneficiary or be retitled into a trust. Understanding the transfer methods available for each account type helps families keep assets out of probate and ensure they pass to the right people.

Regions handles beneficiary designations in branch, by mail, and by phone. Accounts can also be retitled into a trust to keep them out of probate entirely.

Regions has documented procedures for both preparing accounts during your lifetime and handling claims when an account holder passes away.

Because Regions serves a limited number of states, procedures for trust funding and beneficiary changes may differ depending on your location. Verify availability before starting.
