About
Benefit Trust was formed with a single-minded focus of delivering trust, custody, and fiduciary services to corporations, institutions and executives. Our core offerings include custom benefit plans, trustee and custodial services, trading, portfolio unitization, investment management, and collective trust services. Benefit Trust is a privately-held, independent trust company, and was granted a charter by the Office of the State Bank Commissioner in the State of Kansas in 2002.
Benefit Trust Company is dedicated to providing comprehensive solutions to banks, trust companies, private businesses, and public entities. We help each of our clients to develop and manage the right program for their own customers, whether it's a benefit plan, trust program, or GASB initiative. We help our clients manage the complex and ever-changing world of qualified and non-qualified retirement plans and help mitigate the fiduciary and legal risks of managing these programs.
