Eric Trump, the youngest of the two sons President Trump tapped to run his business while in office, plans to brief the president quarterly on the Trump Organization's finances.

"My father and I are very close," Eric Trump said in an interview with Forbes published Friday. "I talk to him a lot. We're pretty inseparable."

Eric Trump and his older brother, Donald Trump Jr., vowed to cut their father out of all business decisions for the duration of his presidency. Although President Trump initially took criticism for declining to divest many of his assets, his arrangement with his two eldest sons has staved off any major ethical challenges during his first two months in office.

"There is kind of a clear separation of church and state that we maintain, and I am deadly serious about that exercise," Eric Trump said in the interview. "I do not talk about the government with him, and he does not talk about the business with us. That's kind of a steadfast pact we made, and it's something that we honor."

It is unclear whether Eric Trump's plan to keep his father abreast of the Trump Organization's financial situation will cross the ethical lines President Trump laid out prior to Inauguration Day.

Eric Trump said he plans to inform his father only of "the bottom line, profitability reports and stuff like that."

"But you know, that's about it," he said.
