FRENCH “FIDUCIE” AND RUSSIAN “ДОВЕРИТЕЛЬНОЕ УПРАВЛЕНИЕ ИМУЩЕСТВОМ” (TERMINOLOGICAL PECULIARITIES)

Abstract

“Trust†is “the greatest and most distinctive achievement performed by Englishmen in the field of jurisprudenceâ€. This universal institution appeared in the Medieval English law and has become very popular during the last decades. Different variations of a trust mechanism have emerged in some world countries. The given paper tries to answer the demands of the modern epoch via making a precise description of the French and Russian trust-like devices. It makes an in-depth analysis, singles out major terminological units and underlines the fact, that the newly-established French and Russian mechanisms have to undergo several stages for turning into faithful reflections of the Anglo-American model of “trustâ€.
