Custodial accounts may offer certain tax benefits for gifts to minors. Once money has been invested into a custodial account, the money becomes the irrevocable property of the minor. However, the custodian (an adult named in the application) maintains control of the account until the minor reaches the age at which custodianship ends for the state in which it was established.
An Education Savings Account offers certain tax benefits to individuals investing money for their child\'\s education.
