Will living trust overide bank savings beneficiary?

A living trust can override a bank savings account's beneficiary designation if the assets are transferred into the trust. Once the funds are in the trust, they are managed according to the terms of the trust document. However, if the bank account remains outside the trust and has a designated beneficiary, that designation will generally take precedence over the trust upon the account holder's death. It's important to coordinate the trust and beneficiary designations to ensure that the intended distribution of assets is achieved.
