Lewin on Trusts, 20th Edition, Mainwork and supplement | 2023*

Lewin on Trusts offers a comprehensive examination of both the foundational principles and practical aspects of trust law. It covers the full spectrum of trust-related matters, such as the formation of trusts, jurisdictional and choice of law issues, trustee appointment, removal, and compensation, the rights and interests of beneficiaries, trustee powers, trust property management, legal actions and available remedies, and trust regulation.

The First Supplement to the 20th Edition, authored by the same team, thoroughly addresses numerous recent legal developments in trust law from both domestic and international perspectives. Key updates include:

• Principles on trustee and former trustee indemnity, especially in relation to insolvent trusts

• Evolving case law on settlor control and reserved powers

• Restrictions on the use of amendment and other powers, particularly after Grand View Private Trust Co. Ltd v Wong (2022), which reshaped the doctrine of ‘fraud on a power’

• Differing international perspectives on the role of protectors in consenting to trustee decisions

• Trustee disclosure duties in litigation, including when they are third parties

• Ongoing developments in liability for knowing receipt and associated proprietary remedies

• The effect of the Supreme Court’s decision in Marex Financial Ltd v Sevilleja (2020) on the reflective loss doctrine in trust contexts

• The implications of Brexit for trust law, particularly regarding jurisdiction and data protection

• Updates on trust regulation, such as rules around the registration of overseas entities
