pensco trust company

Founded in 1989, PENSCO Trust Company established itself as a pioneer and leader in the self-directed IRA industry, providing custody and administrative services for investors seeking to include alternative assets—such as real estate, private equity, and notes—in their retirement portfolios. The company's mission was to empower individual investors with the flexibility to control their retirement funds beyond traditional stocks and bonds. PENSCO was acquired by Pacific Premier Bancorp in 2017 and was rebranded as Pacific Premier Trust. In a subsequent major industry consolidation, Pacific Premier Trust was acquired by Millennium Trust Company in 2023 and the combined entity was rebranded as Inspira Financial, which continues to offer specialized custodial services for alternative and traditional assets.
