Abstract

This article concerns the reservation of property rights and powers by settlors by both formal and informal means. It considers the limits to which such settlors are subject by examining the principles which proscribe the reservation of property rights and the principles which may curtail the exercise of settlor reserved powers. The article concludes by considering informal influence and control and the question of when this becomes sufficiently excessive to cause a trust to be a pretence.
