Q

What changes are going on in trusts law? What is the new ‘perpetuity period’?

A

The Perpetuities and Accumulations Act 2009 (the ‘Act’) will come into force on 6 April 2010. This heralds a change to an historically important aspect of UK trust law, as, for wills and trusts executed after 5 April 2010, the length of time that assets can be tied up in trust (the ‘perpetuity period’) will increase from 80 years to 125 years.
