The everyday record
The working shape of §736.0810 is a ledger and a file: every receipt and disbursement dated and described, statements retained, and trust assets titled in the trustee's fiduciary capacity rather than mixed with personal accounts. The separation rule is absolute in spirit — commingling is the classic breach pattern — and clean records make every later step, from accountings to the final distribution, mechanical rather than forensic.
The annual accounting
§736.08135 describes the trust accounting itself: a reasonably understandable report from a stated beginning date to an ending date, showing all cash and property transactions — significant transactions, receipts and disbursements, gains and losses, assets on hand with their values where feasible, and compensation paid. §736.0813 generally entitles qualified beneficiaries to it at least annually, on termination, and on a change of trustee.
TrusteeClear's accounting worksheet computes these schedules from the ledger — every total ties to entries — and the statute's structure is why: an accounting is a derivation from records, not a composition.
Disclosure and the clock
§736.1008 connects adequate disclosure in trust disclosure documents to the limitations periods for beneficiary claims. The practical consequence of the statutory design is that a complete, dated disclosure trail defines when questions can still be raised — one more reason trustees keep proof of what was sent, to whom, and when. How the limitation rules run for a specific trust is a question for a licensed Florida attorney.
