History of Trusts
The concept of the Trust existed in ancient Roman and Germanic law and was further developed in 12th Century England into the modern Trust we know today.
The Romans used the term fiducia, to refer to a contract between two parties where one transfers property to another for security reasons in a time of danger, under the condition that it would be restored or further administered under instruction.
The Malaysian Trusts
Whilst The Malaysian Trusts Law have similarities with English Trust Law, there are key differences that clients should be aware about prior to establishing a Trust.
