president and head
of personal trust.
Recently, Schultz
played a role in
Wisconsin adopting the Uniform Trust
Code (UTC), signed into law by Gover-
nor Scott Walker on Dec. 13, 2013. The
legislation follows a seven-year effort
during which Schultz acted as co-chair
of the Trust Code Study group charged
with drafting the bill. The passage
makes Wisconsin the 29th jurisdiction
to adopt the UTC, and coincides with
the increased use of trusts for estate
planning and commercial transactions.
The UTC provides a comprehensive
codification of the default rules that
pertains to trusts.
Schultz earned his juris doctor-
ate from Marquette University Law
School and a bachelor of business
administration from the University
of Wisconsin-Madison. Previously,
Schultz was vice president and U. S.
estate planning specialist for BMO
Private Bank.
Waukesha State Bank created Prai-
rie Financial Group® nearly 40 years

throughout the United States. Its
