Missouri law provides that a trustee must not favor one beneficiary over another beneficiary. Although the trust might allow the trustee to treat different beneficiaries differently, when doing so, the trustee must consider each of the beneficiaries’ interest when doing so. The trustee cannot benefit one beneficiary over another based on his or her personal feelings or even based on is understanding of the desires of the grantor, but rather must look to the terms of the trust.
