EXCLUSIVE HOSPITALITY
Cypress Trust Company was founded as a chartered boutique corporate fiduciary in Palm Beach, Florida in 1996.
For the last 25 years, our focus has been to serve as corporate trustee, personal representative or agent during estate settlement, and as an administrative trustee for clients already committed to an investment plan. We also assist not for profit organizations and foundations. Our primary objective is to develop strategies from real-life situations and to preserve legacies.
While we have just opened a Trust Office in Melbourne, we are very proud to announce the planned addition of full-service banking to our current service offerings and to base our banking operations in Brevard County.
Subject to final regulatory approval, our service expansion will be complete in early Fall 2021, and our name will be changed to Cypress Bank & Trust.
With 6 offices in Florida, stretching from Jacksonville to Palm Beach and Melbourne to Naples, we are proud of our legacy, loyal to our communities and clients, and excited for our collective future.
