Fidei offers a variety of trust structures to individuals for a number of different reasons.

The concept of a trust dates to medieval time - a Fideicommissum for example is descended from Roman law, and was originally a means of transmitting an interest, such as an inheritance or legacy, given to one person (the fiduciary) to another person (the Fideicommissary) on the death of the fiduciary.

The establishment of a trust is seen by many people as a tool of the wealthy and whilst trusts have been used for for centuries to protect wealth, trusts are not the sole preserve of the rich.

There are very valid and cost effective reasons as to why someone, who would not consider themselves wealthy in the traditional sense, might wish to settle a trust and although certain trust structures can be quite complex, in the main, the settlement of a trust is a very simple process.

Furthermore, the introduction of the Electronic Transactions Act has enabled us to allow you to settle some of the these simpler trust structures directly and online via this website.
