To quote the immortal words of Mahatma Gandhi, generally speaking, trust does indeed beget trust. 

However, whether you are about to enter the union of marriage or in the unfortunate event of a relationship breakdown, there are matters that trustees, beneficiaries, and wealth advisors should understand and consider in relation to any pre-existing or planned trusts. 

With the evolving legal framework, and international considerations, it is important to understand how these trusts interests would be treated in the event of a breakdown of the relationship and what can be done before problems arise, or on separation, to protect the interests of the beneficial class. 

Join our seminar to gain insights from leading family and divorce lawyers across key jurisdictions: Singapore, Hong Kong, the UK and the US who will give practical and legal insights and share their knowledge and experience on what can be done.

Equip yourself with the practical strategies required to navigate cross-border complexities including: 

  • How do Courts around the world treat trusts in the event of divorce 
  • Avoiding pitfalls in setting up trusts
  • Practical steps to take today to protect long-term interests
  • Best practices for asset protection
  • Integrating trusts with pre/post-nuptial agreements
