An essential guide to the world of trusts

The best way to describe the book is as an almanac containing a wide range of information aimed at everyone from the retail investor to the financial professional. Financial advisers will welcome the section on the regulatory developments in the field, as well as the material on the tax benefits of investing in venturecapital trusts (VCTs). For those who have much less experience, there is a chapter dealing with the basics, including the answers to some of the most frequently asked questions.
