This innovative study provides a comprehensive exposition of the unique function, requirements, ambit, and justification of resulting trusts in Anglo-Australian law. It addresses how major resulting trust developments in other common law and civil law jurisdictions around the world can be understood in light of the analysis. The analysis goes further to explore the impacts on the private international law dimension of resulting trusts. The book will make compelling reading for private lawyers in the common law world, offering something truly new to the literature in the field.
