Abstract | This article reviews Millett LJ’s classic characterisation of the irreducible core content of trusteeship. Using duty modification / exclusion clauses that are commonly found in modern trust-corporate structures to circumvent a trustee’s duty to actively engage in corporate management as an example, this article has two main objectives. First, this article re-examines the duty to act honestly and in good faith in the irreducible core; and secondly, it considers how our reanalysis can help conceptualise and construe the ‘residual supervisory obligation’ enunciated by the courts in the recent Zhang v DBS litigation. |
