In which states can you form an Employee Ownership Trust?

Grid Insight

Short Answer

You can form an Employee Ownership Trust in any US state. Oregon and Delaware are commonly recommended because their trust laws support perpetual (indefinite) trusts and the flexibility to amend them. The trust can be sited in a different state from where the business operates, so a company in a state that restricts perpetual trusts can still form its trust elsewhere.
