Who can establish a trust?
Any natural or legal person. The settlor transfers assets or rights to the trustee, who manages them in the interest of the beneficiaries according to the provisions of the trust deed.
What assets can be placed in a trust?
Real estate, company shares, cash, financial instruments, artworks, intellectual property rights, and other assets, including complex or cross-border assets.
Can a trust include assets located in multiple countries?
Yes. ZagamiLaw has experience with international trusts involving different jurisdictions, ensuring legal compliance and tax coordination.

As a professional Trustee , the Firm handles both ordinary and extraordinary management of entrusted assets, ensuring:
- fiduciary confidentiality

Are so-called “Tax Havens” legal?

These countries are recognized under international tax law , and their inclusion in wealth planning strategies is allowed when such strategies respect:
