Summary:
In this monograph, Dr D'Angelo contends that the trust has evolved from its historical role as a 'guardian' to that of its modern day manifestation as a commercial vehicle used for entrepreneurial purposes. The author develops this argument over seven chapters commencing with the concepts and principles of a 'commercial trust' which follows into the evolution of the commercial trusts in Australia. Analysis then moves to the legal risks of a beneficiary being an equity investor through to an analysis of the legal risks adopted by a commercial trustee. Chapter 5 concerns the legal risks of a creditor of a commercial trust and chapter 6 concerns the insolvency of a commercial trust. The final chapter poses some thoughtful comments on reform of the commercial trust.
