It appears that on the termination of a CRUT, previously undistributed capital gains in effect disappear. Am I correct in that? Or, do the gains somehow flow through to the charitable beneficiary along with the final distribution of the trusts assets. (the charitable beneficiary was never an income beneficiary except to the extent of income earned after the death of the grantor/income beneficiary). I can't find any specific guidance on this.

Thanks in advance for any help.

I have never seen the question but logic decrees that they would go away simply because the recipient would be exempt from taxes.

I would draw an analgy where an individual has named a charity as the beneficiary of the IRA. When the individual dies all of that potential IRD disappears.

Yes, the undistributed capital gains disappear. That is, they are distributed, untaxed, to the charitable remainderman, which is tax exempt, so they never get taxed.
