Trust

The submitted thesis deals with a new area of Czech law - (Czech) trust, incorporated into the Czech legal system by the new Civil Code. The thesis builds on the Czech legal literature, commentaries and articles, as well as on the available sources on trust of the Canadian province of Quebec, which was essential inspiration for the Czech law. It provides an insight into the everyday functioning of a trust and the complex legal relations among the persons involved. It also includes a short overview of the types of trusts which cannot be created or imposed in the Czech Republic but are known in common law countries. From the perspective of a proposed amendment, it further discusses the future of the (Czech) trust, above all, the issue of whether it should be subject to registration.
