Description

A custodian appointed pursuant to the Uniform Transfers to Minors Act may designate a successor by executing and dating an instrument of designation. Such execution and dating must be done before a subscribing witness other than the successor custodian. A New Hampshire Designation of Successor Custodian by Donor Pursuant to the Uniform Transfers to Minors Act is a legal document that allows a donor to appoint a successor custodian to manage and oversee assets transferred to a minor under the Uniform Transfers to Minors Act (TMA). This designation ensures proper management and protection of assets until the minor reaches the age of majority. The Uniform Transfers to Minors Act in New Hampshire provides a framework for the transfer of assets to minors without the need for a formal guardianship or trust. Under this act, a donor can transfer assets such as cash, securities, real estate, or personal property to a custodian who will hold, manage, invest, and use the assets for the minor's benefit until they reach a certain age (usually 18 or 21). The designation of a successor custodian is an important aspect of the process as it allows the donor to name an individual or entity who will assume custodial duties in case the initial custodian is unable or unwilling to act. This ensures continuity and prevents any disruption in the management of the transferred assets.
