Trusts
What is a trust ?
A trust is a legal arrangement, almost always in writing (the
Trust Deed), whereby the original owner of the assets (the
Settlor), transfers them to another (the Trustee), who will hold
the assets for the benefit of others (the Beneficiaries). The
Settlor can also be a Beneficiary of the trust.
Forming a Jersey trust is a highly effective way of protecting
wealth and Fairbairn Trust Limited, generally in conjunction with
the client's professional advisers, can arrange for trusts to suit
individual requirements.
By creating a trust the Settlor gives up legal ownership of
the assets. They are transferred or gifted into the trust fund so
it is essential that the Settlor understands fully the implications
of creating a trust.
The creation of an offshore trust is capable of delivering
significant benefits both to the Settlor and Beneficiaries.
