The Simple Deed of Trust is a fundamental legal instrument in Malaysian trust law, used to create formal trust arrangements for both personal and commercial purposes. This document type is essential when individuals or entities wish to transfer assets to be managed by trustees for the benefit of specified beneficiaries. The deed must comply with Malaysian legal requirements, particularly the Trustees Act 1949 and related legislation. It typically includes detailed provisions about trust property, trustee powers, beneficiary rights, and distribution terms. The Simple Deed of Trust is commonly used in estate planning, family wealth management, charitable giving, and corporate structuring, providing a flexible yet robust framework for asset protection and management.
