Cardozo Hosts Conference Today on Trust Law in the 21st Century

Cardozo is hosting a conference today on Trust Law in the 21st Century:

The last 15 years have brought dramatic changes to the law of trusts, an area long known for stability rather than innovation. The conference will explore three doctrinal areas in which significant developments have occurred:
   

(1) The growth of the perpetual trust, fueled by the demise of the Rule Against Perpetuities
   

(2) The move by many states and offshore jurisdictions to increase the availability of trusts for asset protection purposes
   

(3) Changing conceptions of fiduciary duty
