Episode description
The new Trust legislation came into effect in New Zealand in January 2021. This signalled the first major change in Trust Law since 1956. The new act lifts the expectations on trustees. It also puts the emphasis on the role and responsibility to look after the interests of the beneficiaries. With deadlines for action, this is an important update for all trustees.
