Help needed to set up savings for 3 people

Hi all of you out there. My 2 sisters and I need to set up a savings account in trust for my father, since my mother left this money to be used by him until his death. We can't as yet find an account that will let us do this the problem being that there are 3 of us, not a couple which most accounts allow for. Any ideas? Thanks

If it's a trust account you may need to set it up as a business account with most banks (this is certainly the way it works at HSBC). In which case a 3-person mandate is no problem at all. Rates will probably be shockingly bad though.I am a Chartered Financial Planner

The Skipton BS is an example of a building society which allows up to 4 trustees for an account in trust for an individual.
Just ask for an extra copy (two names per form) of the Investment Account Application Form (For trustees where the beneficiary is an individual) from a branch.
