In today’s digital world, where digital assets form an increasingly significant part of our personal wealth, the security and proper management of these assets after our lifetime have become critically important. As the lines between physical and digital legacies blur, ensuring these assets are protected and securely passed down to the people we love is more crucial than ever.

 

Current Landscape

The average individual today manages over 130 online accounts, ranging from banking and investments to social media and emails. These accounts are more than just digital conveniences; they are integral to our digital identity and hold substantial financial and personal value. Each account, whether it be for personal communication, professional networking, or financial management, contributes to a comprehensive digital footprint that defines our interactions and transactions in the digital space.

This extensive array of digital assets underscores the growing need for robust digital legacy planning to ensure their thoughtful management and secure transfer.

 

Challenge

Many individuals fail to manage digital assets effectively due to unawareness and complexities related to digital rights. Approximately 70% of people do not have arrangements in place for their digital assets after they pass away, which can lead to significant financial losses and emotional distress for loved ones.
