Welcome to EO Radio Show – Your Nonprofit Legal Resource. In today's episode, my guests are Dale Schroeder and Anneke Niemira with NewEdge Wealth, and our topic is charitable split-interest trusts. These come in four varieties: charitable lead annuity and unitrusts and charitable remainder annuity and unitrusts, known affectionately as CLATs and CLUTs, and CRATs and CRUTs, which are also further defined sometimes as NI-CRUTs, NIM-CRUTs, and Flip-CRUTs. That's a lot of acronyms. While the technical details are quite a lot to get one's head around, understanding the big idea for each and where each can fit into the investment planning is quite an accessible topic. In this episode, we talk about the big-picture understanding of these planning opportunities for philanthropists and the types of situations where lead trusts make a lot of sense.

In next week's episode, Dale, Anneke, and I will dive deeper into the world of charitable remainder trusts and their technical issues and traps for the unwary.
