New Jersey Information Sheet Trusteeship-Corporation (DEISTIC) is a type of corporate structure in which a business entity is formed to act as a trustee for the benefit of a trust. This type of corporate structure is used to separate the legal identity of the trust from the legal identity of the beneficiary or beneficiaries of the trust. It also allows for the trust to have a life of its own and gives it the same rights and privileges as a corporation. DEISTIC provides the trust with limited liability protection, and it also allows for the trust to have its own board of trustees who are responsible for managing its assets. There are two types of DEISTIC structures: the Traditional Trust and the Statutory Trust. The Traditional Trust is formed by filing a Certificate of Trust with the New Jersey Division of Corporations and is governed by the New Jersey Trusts and Estates Law. The Statutory Trust is established under the New Jersey Uniform Statutory Trust Law and is governed by that Act.
