Trust Laws in Cyprus reviews both the Cyprus International Trust Law and the Trustee Law 1955, and places them in an international context, pointing out the solutions available on the island for wealth management, estate planning, and asset protection purposes. Authored by well-known experts in this field, chapters specifically analyse the relevance of Cyprus trusts where settlors wish to retain certain powers, arrange their succession in a more flexible manner than would be possible under forced heirship provisions, or protect heirloom assets from creditor claims.
