The expression "international trust" has no settled definition, although it is in common use. Generally, the term is applied to a trust that has legal significance with two or more countries. Until the 1960s international trusts were rarely encountered - they are now commonplace. This is partly due to the increased mobility of people and property, but mostly because of the growth of the offshore trust industry. Distilling the knowledge and breadth of experience from an expert and distinguished collection of individual contributors, "The International Trust" deals with a variety of highly topical and significant issues. These range from international recognition of trusts to protectors and forced heirship, as well as an examination of the particular difficulties that arise in the context of civil law jurisdictions. This book is adapted from, and revises material on many of the topics covered by, the loose-leaf encyclopaedia "International Trust Laws".
For example, chapters dealing with topics of day-by-day practical importance to the practitioner in the international trust field and chapters dealing with trusts from the perspective of Italy and Switzerland are updated and reproduced here in convenient hardback format. In addition the book includes an editor's introduction, providing an overview of the field, and a previously unpublished chapter by Professor Donovan Waters on the future of the trust from a global perspective, reflecting the most cutting-edge thinking.
John Glasson is a Solicitor and a consultant on trust law to Eversheds in London. He is the editor of International Trust Laws
