Trusts are
regulated by
the Trusts
Act 2001.
They come
into
existence
when a
person (an
individual
or corporate
body) [the
settlor]
gratuitously
transfers
the legal
ownership of
assets to
another
person(s)
[the
trustee] to
hold for the
benefit of
other
person(s)
[the
beneficiary]
or for a
specific
purpose. The
trustee is
therefore
under an
equitable
obligation
to hold and
deal with
the trust
property for
the benefit
of the
beneficiaries
and in
accordance
with the
terms of the
trust.
