This book is intended to be a comprehensive treatise of Guernsey trust law, providing practical answers for practitioners advising on Guernsey trusts and trustees administering them. In particular, it provides a detailed analysis of the provisions of the Trusts (Guernsey) Law 2007 (as amended); a consideration of Guernsey trust cases, as well as relevant cases in Jersey and in other jurisdictions; analysis of the legal principles underpinning Guernsey trust law; and where there is no clear Guernsey authority on a particular point of law it gives a reasoned view on the point, drawing on the relevant legal principles, together with a broad assessment of the confidence of which the authors hold that view.
