Presidents Message
2011 -2012
Welcome to the Kansas Bankers Association Trust
Division website. This
website was created by the Board of Directors of the KBA Trust
Division for the benefit and use of our members.
Our Trust Division is made up of banks and trust
companies offering trust and related services throughout the state
of Kansas.
We are committed to providing members with the tools they
need to stay on the forefront of the trust industry and provide the
best service possible for their customers.
Whether it is legislation, regulations, investment strategy,
technology, or staff education, we will work to help keep you
informed of the most recent developments.
Please take a moment to view our
website to see how we can serve your needs.
We encourage your input.
Please feel free to contact me, or any other board member,
with any questions, concerns, or ideas of how we can improve this
website and better serve our members.
One of our most important
activities is the planning and organization of the annual Trust
Conference, held in the fall of each year.
This year the conference will be held at the Capitol Plaza
Hotel in Topeka
on October 13th and 14th.
We are putting together an exciting and
informative program of respected professionals that will give you
and your staff the latest information on key issues facing the trust
industry. Additionally,
you will have ample time to visit informally with other trust
professionals. The
conference is generously supported by numerous vendors serving the
trust industry, who will also be present to advise you of the latest
developments and new services that may be made available to our
customers.
We hope you will be able to join us in October.
This year’s conference has several fresh topics which should
be of interest to all departments.
First, is a discussion on the changes taking place in South Dakota law enabling the use of dynasty
trusts; Second is the process for converting discretionary trusts to
unitrusts; and Third, is a discussion of tracking and securing
E-assets.
In the mean time, we encourage you to become an
active member of the Trust Division and to use this site to
communicate with other trust professionals when you have a question
or concern that you would like to “bounce off” a fellow
professional.
Again, we welcome you to the Kansas Bankers
Association Trust Division and we appreciate your support.
