Consulting Trust Setup
A Malaysian trust must satisfy the three certainties: intention, subject matter, and object. The settlor must intend to create a trust, the trust property must be clearly identified, and the beneficiaries must be ascertainable. Missing any certainty causes the trust to fail, returning assets to the settlor’s estate.
