Webinar – Key Considerations in Structuring Indigenous Trusts (CPD 457)

Qualifies for 1.0 CPD hour’

Indigenous trusts are commonly used to hold and manage settlement funds and other collective assets. The structuring of Indigenous trusts engages a mix of legal, governance and policy considerations which require the balancing of competing objectives, including access to capital and protection of capital.

Informed by practical experience, this session will provide an overview of key issues and drafting considerations that arise when structuring Indigenous trust agreements. Key considerations will include the role of trustees, per capita distributions, the management of trust property and accountability and transparency.

This session is intended for lawyers advising First Nation clients, trustees or other related parties involved in the establishment of Indigenous trusts.
