  • THE USE and ABUSE of TRUSTS – Presentation by Martin Lewis at the Private Client Panel at the Saint Petersburg International Legal Forum 2015
    THE USE AND ABUSE OF TRUSTS – Presentation by Martin Lewis at the Private Client Panel at the Saint Petersburg International Legal Forum 2015 Introduction The great majority of off-shore trusts are probably ‘sham trusts’. That is to say, domestic and international trust law, official bodies and courts will not recognise them if they examine them closely, as they are often little more than glorified bank accounts, or the paperwork merely disguises a different reality. To design effective international structures involving trusts, an understanding of how the international law of trusts has emerged and developed can be helpful and which I look at in broad terms this afternoon. The sources of international trust law The briefest history of trusts helps one to anticipate what international trust law very probably provides in most ordinary situations, without going to the text books first and which essentially means an understanding of the roots of English trust law. Ancient Rome developed the concept of trusts on death, but it was in England in the 12th and 13th century that the concept of trusts created during the lifetime of the person creating the trust (who I shall refer to as ‘settlors’) emerged and this was in response to the practical problems of leaving land in the hands of perhaps an uncle or brother (in England women had effectively no property rights until the 19th century) when one went away to the Holy Land to fight in a crusade. Nobles returning from the Holy Land at this time were sometimes met by relatives to whom they had entrusted the management of their property, refusing to return property and so returning Nobles petitioned the King and who delegated the determination of these tiresome arguments to his Lord Chancellor and which is the origin of the Chancery Division of the English court system and the law of equity administered by that court.

  • Trust As E Relationship Treated by Common Law Legal Systems and As a Relationship Treated by Civil Law Legal Systems. Things In
    European Journal of Sustainable Development (2015), 4, 2, 221-226 ISSN: 2239-5938 Doi: 10.14207/ejsd.2015.v4n2p221 Trust as e Relationship Treated by Common Law Legal Systems and as a Relationship Treated by Civil Law Legal Systems. Things in Common and Comparison between the Two Systems By Nertila Sulçe1 Abstract Inheritance relationships are born when the ownership was born and will exist as the property’s right herself. Inheritance is an ancient institution recognized by the Roman law in the Twelve Tables (303 BC) in which the testamentary right was given priority.Roman law had a well-developed concept of the trust (fideicommissum) in terms of "testamentary trusts" created by wills but never developed the concept of the inter vivos (living) trusts which apply while the creator lives. Trusts have existed since Roman times and have become one of the most important innovations in property law. A trust is a relationship whereby property is held by one party for the benefit of another. A trust is created by a settlor (the person who creates the trust), who transfers some or all of his or her property to a trustee (a person either an individual, a corporation or more than one of either who administers a trust).The trustee holds that property for the trust's beneficiaries (a beneficiary is anyone who receives benefits from any assets the trust owns). Personal trust law developed in England at the time of the Crusades, during the 12th and 13th centuries.The trust relationship was created by later common law jurisdictions. Trusts play a significant role in most common law systems, and their success has led some civil law jurisdictions to incorporate trusts into their civil codes.
