The Trust and Estate Accounting Solution

Complex trust and estate accounting is made easy with Navigator. Our integrated general ledger and portfolio accounting software can help you every step of the way.

Separate Principal and Income Accounts

Managing trusts or estates means that you often have to account for assets' principal and income separately. Navigator's extensive chart of accounts allows you to classify principal and income receipts separately for tax and reporting purposes. Navigator's double-entry accounting structure assures the integrity of your financial records.

Manage Layers of Complexity with Ease

Multiple layers of marketable securities often presents a challenge in trust accounting. Navigator has the portfolio management tools that you need. It allows you to account for multiple tax lots, track cost-basis and purchase date for blocks of securities, produce interim tax schedules, and automatically update security prices. This is ideal for private foundations or those looking for a total accounting solution.

Generate Complex Reports

To help serve multiple audiences, Navigator's reporting features are tailored to the special needs of fiduciaries, beneficiaries and trustees and can report on principal, income or both. In addition, the extended Reporting module produces separate and consolidated reports that span multiple years during lengthy estate settlements.

Automate Check Writing

Managing disbursements from multiple accounts to vendors and beneficiaries can be a time-consuming burden for a manager of a trust or the executor of an estate. Our Check Writing module makes complex check-runs simple. You can print checks from multiple accounts onto blank checkstock — fully customized, professionally formatted and MICR-encoded — avoiding the need to handle multiple pre-printed checkstock.
