Lion Trust Accounting Reviews & Product Details

Lion is the purpose-built trust accounting platform for Self-Directed IRA custodians, trustees, TPAs, and providers. It delivers audit-ready compliance, real-time prohibited transaction detection, and scalable workflows for complex alternative assets. Lion is the modern, audit-ready operational backbone purpose-built for the self-directed retirement industry. Unlike generic accounting or trust software retrofitted for SDIRAs, Lion was designed by trustees and custodians who deeply understand the unique compliance, operational, and scalability challenges of alternative assets. The platform gives SDIRA custodians and administrators the precision tools they need to manage rental properties, unsecured/secured notes, private placements, mineral rights, and virtually any other IRS-allowed alternative investment — all while maintaining full regulatory compliance and dramatically increasing operational capacity. Lion eliminates the risk and friction of managing complex self-directed accounts with fragmented tools. It automates specialized workflows, flags compliance issues in real time, and scales account volume linearly without linear headcount growth (moving well beyond the typical ~300 accounts per processor limit of legacy systems).
