Equity & trusts

At a time when Asia represents the fastest growing economic region, there is no better moment to consider what trusts law can contribute to societal stability and economic prosperity. This book does this by offering the first work that systematically explores trusts law across the region. Many Asian-Pacific jurisdictions have integrated and developed trusts law in their legal systems; either through colonial heritage or statutory activism. But the diversity of legal traditions and local contexts has resulted in trusts laws having a significantly varied impact across the region. In the modern globalised world there is growing need to adopt an outward looking approach in dealing with matters of common interest. This book answers this need by bringing together leading legal scholars and practitioners in the region to explore the theory and practice of trusts law, contextualised to specific jurisdictions in the Asia-Pacific. Exploring 17 jurisdictions in Asia, it bring both an academic and practitioner perspective to trusts law in the region.

Reviews for Asia-Pacific Trusts Law, Volume 1: Theory and Practice in Context

An achievement of the first rank … I found this book to be a fascinating one. It is not only informative but also thought provoking … it was a veritable Herculean effort on the part of the editors to gather together so many authors from so many diverse jurisdictions. The result is a resource that is probably the first of its kind and which will be not only fascinating to academic scholars but will also guide legal practitioners as well. -- Andrew Phang, Justice of the Court of Appeal, Supreme Court of Singapore * Malayan Law Journal * There is a wealth of useful material here that practitioners will benefit from reading. Overall, this book deserves top marks. -- Michael Olesnicky * Trust Quarterly Review *
