WHAT ARE TRUST ACCOUNTS?

Trust accounts are designed to help ensure that everyone is paid for the work that they do. They’re required for eligible construction projects in QLD.

 

In simple terms, a trust account is separate account that quarantines and safe-guards funds that are due to be paid to someone else.

 

If a trust account is required, it’s mandatory, not optional, and the trustee must open and use the account correctly.

WHO WE HELP

Trust accounts are required for builders, developers and subcontractors working on eligible projects. A party that opens and uses a trust account is called the trustee.
